Semiconductor manufacturer TSMC said that it has recovered about 80 percent of its equipment hit by a computer virus on Friday.
TSMC, which makes the processors that power Apple's iPhone, was hit by a computer virus and had to shut down its fabrication plants.
The company said it expects a full recovery on Aug. 6. In a statement, the company said it "contained the problem and found a solution." News of the TSMC issues were reported on Friday by various outlets. At the time TSMC said that it wasn't a cyberattack that felled its plants.
