Co-op

Co-op experienced a cyberattack that resulted in significant financial losses and operational disruptions. The attack led to a reduction in daily spend by 11 percent for the first 30 days. The impact was particularly severe in remote and rural areas where Co-op acts as a sole provider. The financial hit was substantial, with lost sales, incident response, IT restoration, and legal counsel costs contributing to the overall impact. The attack had knock-on effects for suppliers, partners, and service providers.
