BRASILIA (Reuters) -Brazilian technology services provider C&M Software has resumed operations with clearance from the central bank, it said on Thursday, after reporting a cyberattack on its systems the previous day.

C&M serves financial institutions lacking connectivity infrastructure. The central bank had ordered it to shut down financial institutions' access to its infrastructure after the cyberattack.
