Stryker said a cyberattack related to the Iranian conflict is still disrupting its operations, including order processing, manufacturing and shipping.

Stryker experienced a global disruption to its Microsoft systems following a cyberattack Wednesday, which resulted in the company asking 56,000 employees to disconnect from all networks and avoid turning on company devices.

The hackers behind the attack said they were retaliating on behalf of Iran, The Wall Street Journal reported Wednesday.

On Thursday, Stryker said operations were still disrupted, but it doesn't believe its patient-related services or connected products have been impacted.

Stryker's investigation into the incident is ongoing, it said.
