Summary
JBS Foods, the world’s largest meat supplier and a recent ransomware victim, revealed on June 9 that it paid $11 million to hackers. The revelation comes after the CEO of Colonial Pipeline, which was attacked weeks earlier, admitted to paying roughly $4.5 million in ransom and as a spate of high-profile ransomware attacks have disrupted the gas, transportation, and insurance sectors.You may not have heard of JBS Foods before, but depending on your dietary restrictions, you’ve probably eaten the world’s largest meat supplier’s wares. One of its Canadian plants was also affected, and the company paused beef and lamb kills in Australia, presumably until the plants needed to process that meat were back online.The attack mirrored the Colonial Pipeline shutdown in May. Colonial, which supplies the East Coast of the United States with nearly half its fuel, was shut down for several days when a ransomware attack locked up some of its systems.
