Excerpts:

Kronos Private Cloud has been hit by a ransomware attack. The company, also known as Ultimate Kronos Group (UKG), provides timekeeping services to companies employing millions across worldwide.

"Issues companies will have is employees don't know their schedule (it's in Kronos) and then when they clock in and out, that clock won't go anywhere," a Register reader, who works for an affected firm, told us.

Kronos' timekeeping products are used by companies in the UK including supermarket chain Sainsburys, Boots the Chemist and Jaguar Land Rover, and large outfits in the US including Clemson Uni in South Carolina, USA; Winthrop University Hospital in Long Island, New York; and US state and local government customers such as Santa Clara County.

The message from Kronos said restoring full service would take "several weeks."
