Another day. Another company pwned. Rather than go through the story I’ll let this report tell you:
Hacking gang Anubis claimed credit on Tuesday for an attack on Coca-Cola-owned dairy company fairlife, threatening to publish stolen data unless it received an unspecified ransom.
The group made the claim on its dark web site, saying it had stolen 1 terabyte of data from fairlife.
Coca-Cola did not immediately respond to a request for comment, and the hackers did not immediately return a message.
Arvind Parthasarathi, CEO and founder, CYGNVS had this comment:
“AI has fundamentally changed the scale and success of cyberattacks. Instead of manually looking for truffles in a forest, imagine an army of truffle pigs that are searching every square inch of the forest. Where attackers once had to hunt manually for vulnerabilities, today’s frontier AI models give them an army of infinitely scalable AI, constantly digging and searching for weaknesses across every corner of an organization’s environment, while also creating the exploit, taking advantage, and executing it.
That means organizations should expect more successful attacks, more major incidents, more simultaneous incidents, and far greater operational disruption than security teams have historically planned for.
Major cyber incidents used to be treated like once-in-a-decade hurricanes, something that only happened to someone else. Today, many CISOs are dealing with serious incidents every couple of months, and some organizations are managing multiple incidents at the same time.
The question has shifted from ‘will you have a major incident?’ to ‘how do you treat a major incident like business as usual?’
Major incidents like the Coca-Cola and Fairlife attack reinforce that resilience is the key muscle.
Organizations need an out-of-band command center that brings together security, IT, legal, risk, communications, executive leadership and trusted external partners, with pre-defined playbooks covering technical recovery, regulatory reporting, customer communications and evidence preservation. Organizations build resilience more quickly if they have already practiced these scenarios through regular tabletop exercises. Cyber resilience is about making incident response and recovery a repeatable business process.”
This should be a warning to organizations. It’s a matter of when not if you will get pwned. The question is how will you react when that happens.
