Coca-Cola Suspends US Fairlife Production Due to Ransomware Attack
Coca-Cola has temporarily halted Fairlife production in the US due to a ransomware attack that compromised production systems. The company is investigating the scope of the incident and working with cybersecurity experts, but has not yet identified the attackers or received any ransom demands.
Coca-Cola has announced a temporary suspension of Fairlife production in the United States following a ransomware attack. Fairlife, a wholly owned dairy company of Coca-Cola, produces ultra-filtered milk in various flavors. The company’s production systems were accessed by hackers, leading to the shutdown of operations. Coca-Cola has notified law enforcement and is currently conducting a thorough investigation with the assistance of external cybersecurity consultants to fully assess the impact of the incident. Despite the disruption, Coca-Cola emphasized that product quality and safety remain unaffected, and Fairlife’s Canadian operations are not currently impacted. The company is still working to determine the full extent of the attack and whether it will have any significant financial consequences.
