Blue Yonder, a Panasonic subsidiary specializing in AI-driven supply chain solutions, [1]experienced a recent ransomware attack that impacted many of its customers. "Among its 3,000 customers are high-profile organizations like DHL, Renault, Bayer, Morrisons, Nestle, 3M, Tesco, Starbucks, Ace Hardware, Procter & Gamble, Sainsbury, and 7-Eleven," reports BleepingComputer. From the report:

> On Friday, the company warned that it was experiencing disruptions to its managed services hosting environment due to a ransomware incident that occurred the day before, on November 21. "On November 21, 2024, Blue Yonder experienced disruptions to its managed services hosted environment, which was determined to be the result of a ransomware incident," [2]reads the announcement. "Since learning of the incident, the Blue Yonder team has been working diligently together with external cybersecurity firms to make progress in their recovery process. We have implemented several defensive and forensic protocols."

> Blue Yonder claims it has detected no suspicious activity in its public cloud environment and is still processing multiple recovery strategies. [...] As expected, this has impacted clients directly, as a spokesperson for UK grocery store chain Morrisons has [3]confirmed to the media they have reverted to a slower backup process. Sainsbury told CNN that it had contingency plans in place to overcome the disruption. A Saturday update informed customers that the restoration of the impacted services continued, but no specific timelines for complete restoration could be shared yet. Another update published on Sunday reiterated the same, urging clients to monitor the customer update page on Blue Yonder's website over the coming days.
