United Natural Foods

United Natural Foods, one of the largest food distributors in the U.S., experienced a cyberattack that began on June 5. The company identified unauthorized activity on its systems, prompting officials to take systems offline. This action temporarily impacted the company's ability to fulfill and distribute customer orders. The incident caused, and is expected to continue to cause, temporary disruptions to business operations. The company implemented workarounds for certain operations to continue servicing customers where possible. Law enforcement was notified, and a cybersecurity firm was hired to remediate the incident. The investigation remains ongoing and is in its early stages.
