Dole Food Company stated that the threat actors who launched the latest ransomware attack had access to the personal information of the employees.
The business disclosed that a ransomware attack had affected its operations. The corporation didn't disclose any specifics regarding the attack at the time of the revelation.
Dole acted swiftly after becoming aware of the situation to neutralise the danger and hired renowned outside cybersecurity specialists.
These experts have been collaborating with Dole's internal teams to fix the problem and safeguard systems ever since.
The corporation had to close down production facilities across North America even though it denied that there had been a significant impact on its operations.
