LexisNexis has ceased operations of its Diligence, Metabase API, and Newsdesk services due to suspicious activity detected on servers managed by an unnamed third-party vendor. The shutdown was implemented as a precautionary measure, according to reports.

Customers have indicated that the issues first arose on Wednesday, and the situation has not yet been resolved, as stated by The Register. Further details regarding the nature of the suspicious activity have not been disclosed.
