Israeli chip manufacturer Tower Semiconductor said Sunday that it had been targeted in a cyberattack on some of its systems, and was working with law enforcement organizations and experts “to recover the impacted systems,” the Reuters news agency reported.

“The company’s IT security systems identified a security incident on some of its systems as a result of a cyber event. As a preventive measure, the company halted certain of its servers and proactively held operations in some of its manufacturing facilities, and has done so in a gradual, organized manner,” the company said.
The company did not offer any further details on the nature of the attack.
