Oilfield services company Halliburton disclosed on Friday that an unauthorised third party had breached some of its systems. The company, which discovered the breach two days prior, has initiated an internal investigation and taken affected systems offline to safeguard its data.
Halliburton is currently assessing the impact of the incident, but as of now, there is no evidence of any disruption to energy services. The US Department of Energy confirmed on Thursday that the breach had not affected the provision of energy services.
