Mediterranean Shipping Company says it has experienced a network outage and it cannot rule out the possibility of a cyber attack, the company said Friday.

The outage began in one of MSC’s data centers in Geneva, Switzerland and the company shut down its servers in response. In an update late Friday, the company said the issue only concerns its headquarters in Geneva.

“In light of the network outage incurred on one of the data centers in Geneva, we decided to close down the servers in our Headquarters as a first safety measure – since security is our top priority,” MSC said on Twitter.
