German copper producer Aurubis suffered a cyberattack that forced it to shut down IT systems to prevent the attack's spread.
The attack caused some operations to turn on manual mode to keep the flow of incoming and outgoing goods adequate for as long as required until computer-assisted automation returns at the smelters.
