Cyberattack causes major disruptions at Philadelphia Inquirer.

The Philadelphia Inquirer's operations were disrupted by an apparent cyberattack over the weekend, preventing the printing of its regular Sunday newspaper. While online posting and updating of stories to Inquirer.com continued, it was unclear when systems would be fully restored. The incident raises questions about The Inquirer's cybersecurity practices and infrastructure, and it comes as news organizations and other companies have seen growing online threats such as ransomware.
