Update, Monday, March 7: PressReader, which provides the Times Colonist e-edition, has begun to process the backlog of publications after experiencing a cyber-security incident that disrupted its service.
As of Monday morning, the March 6 edition was available through PressReader, but March 3, 4 and 5 had not yet been added.
For the time being, you can access those editions through the e-edition link on our website menu. No login is required.
PressReader has issued this statement:
PressReader’s technical teams have been working around the clock to address the recent disruptions to services. Our security teams have now classified this as a cyber security incident.
This situation comes as companies across North America have seen an increase in security incidents over the past several weeks.
At this stage, we do not see any evidence that customer data has been compromised, and we are continuing to restore content processing so that we can release current issues of your favorite publications.
Thank you for the outpouring of support during these difficult times for everyone. We will continue to provide updates as they become available.
