Ransomware attack takes down HR and payroll company software, potentially for several weeks

[Yo_Mama_Been_Loggin]

If your company uses Kronos, you might not be able to use it to clock in and out of work – for a few weeks.

HR management company Ultimate Kronos Group has been hit by a ransomware attack that's hobbling its clients access to processing payroll, handling time sheets and managing their workforce.

Also hit by the attack is Kronos Workforce Central, which contains a suite of workforce management solutions for time and attendance, absence management, scheduling and more. The Kronos Workforce Central tools were created specifically for industries to help manage their entire workforce on a cloud platform.

For now, Kronos recommends its clients looks into alternatives for workforce management while it navigates this situation.

1. I can recommend that nobody use the Phoenix Payroll System by IBM. The Canadian

government has had problems with it for years and they weren't even hacked! I was
always satisfied to use a time-card, a time-clock and a paper check!
