Telvent Canada confirmed the cyber attack in a statement sent to QMI Agency on Thursday, but wouldn't provide many details.

"Telvent is aware of a security breach of its corporate network that has affected some customer files," said a spokesman for Schneider Electric, Telvent Canada's parent company.

The devil is in the details but 'not unusual'.
