Retail giant falls Victim to REvil Ransomware Attack
Share on FacebookShare on Twitter

Around January 14th, 2021, the retail giant Dairy Farm was attacked by the REvil ransomware operation. The attackers demanded a $30 million ransom. The ransomware group compromised Dairy Farm’s network and encrypted devices. Allegedly the attackers had access to information up until 7 days after the attack.

Dairy Farm is a massive pan-Asian retail chain operator that operates several grocery, convenience store, health and beauty, home furnishing and restaurant brands in Asian markets. These include Wellcome, Giant, Cold Storage, Hero, 7-Eleven, Rose Pharmacy, GNC, Mannings, Ikea, Maxims, and many more. Dairy Farm never fully confirmed the amount demanded by the attackers but did state that only 2% of the company devices were affected.
