Israel’s national payment system was targeted today in a cyberattack, causing a partial disruption in the clearing and approval systems of credit card purchases, leaving some consumers unable to use their credit cards to shop in stores or complete transactions for a brief time, says Shva (Automated Banking Services), which operates the country’s payment and ATM services.
The incident happened in the morning before noon. It lasted 26 minutes until the malfunction was fixed, after which the payment systems returned to full functioning and credit card transactions could be processed.
