- TAKKT said in an ad hoc notice (21 Oct, 16:26) that it was the target of a cyberattack on parts of its IT systems in its Industrial & Packaging business in Europe and Foodservice business in North America; order processing, customer service and deliveries are significantly restricted, with orders still taken via temporary workarounds.
- Root cause: not disclosed; retail-news reports no confirmed information on the type of attack, perpetrators or any data theft.
- No attacker named.
- Parts of the systems were shut down as a precaution and a task force is working with external cybersecurity and forensic specialists; the company could not yet say whether damage occurred or when systems will be fully available.
