Blue Yonder Reports Service Disruption from Ransomware Attack
/ 1 min read
Blue Yonder faces service disruption due to ransomware attack. The US-based supply chain SaaS vendor Blue Yonder has reported significant disruptions to its managed services following a ransomware incident on November 21. While the company is working with external cybersecurity firms to restore systems, it has not provided a timeline for when operations will resume. Customers, including major retailers like Morrisons and Sainsbury’s in the UK, are experiencing supply chain issues, with some reverting to backup processes. Starbucks has also reported difficulties with payroll and scheduling systems, although it continues to operate. The incident underscores the vulnerability of supply chains to cyberattacks, reminiscent of previous disruptions like the Colonial Pipeline attack, but it appears to have minimal impact on US Thanksgiving shopping.
