Cyberattack on Dole Causes Temporary Salad Shortage

The produce company said it suffered a ransomware attack earlier this month.

Dole Food Company earlier this month temporarily shut down its North American production plants and shipments to grocery stores in the wake of a ransomware attack.
Upon learning of this incident, Dole moved quickly to contain the threat and engaged leading third-party cybersecurity experts, who have been working in partnership with Doles internal teams to remediate the issue and secure systems, the company said
in a press statement.
Dole, which confirmed it is also working with law enforcement on the case, said the
ransomware attack
had limited affect on its operations.
Even so, CNN — which
first broke the news
of the attack — reported that some grocery shelves were left empty of Dole salad kits for a few days due to shipment issues tied to the cyberattack.
