UK Firm Zephyr Energy Hit By Payment Redirection Attack; Loses $1M in Cyber Fraud

The company, a technology-led oil and gas firm focused on developing assets in the US Rocky Mountain region, said on Thursday that one of its American subsidiaries was targeted in what it described as a "highly sophisticated" attack.
