The National Computer Emergency Response Team (nCERT) has issued a crucial advisory to counter false reports about ATMs and online banking services being down in Pakistan. The alert, created in coordination with the State Bank of Pakistan (SBP) and other key stakeholders, confirms that there have been no disruptions or closures affecting ATM services or online banking.
The advisory reassures the public that banking infrastructure remains operational and that financial institutions are actively monitoring for any potential cyber threats. The nCERT urges individuals to disregard the misleading information circulating on social media and messaging platforms, emphasizing that the real-time status of banking services remains unaffected.
