Latest “Russian hackers” Cyberattack targets Iowa grain co-op
as Food Supply chain latest to experience the #Cyberpandemic
Russian hackers leveled a ransomware attack on an Iowa farming co-op and demanded $5.9 million to unlock the computer networks used to keep food supply chains and feeding schedules on track for millions of chickens, hogs and cattle.
Fort Dodge-based New Cooperative, a member-owned alliance of farmers that sells corn and soy products, contained the breach and developed a workaround to continue accepting grain shipments and distributing feed, a person close to the company told The Washington Post, speaking on the condition of anonymity to discuss sensitive information.
But the cooperative took its computer network offline to isolate the incursion, the person said, and shuttered its soil-mapping software — a master-control system that optimizes irrigation and fertilizationb — as a precaution.
Farmers, meanwhile, have taken to using paper scale tickets to log their grain hauls as they drop them off at the cooperative, said Tim Luginsland, Wells Fargo’s food and agribusiness sector manager.

Cyberattack shuts down US grain distributor — (this is the third attack/distributor)
At least three U.S. grain distributors’ systems have been infected with ransomware in recent weeks, raising concerns that hackers have found an easy target in a vital part of the U.S. food supply chain.
All three known victims are Midwestern grain cooperatives that buy grain from farmers and then process, store and resell it for uses like livestock feed and fuel. The attacks, in which organized cybercriminals lock up organizations’ computers and demand ransom for a program to unlock them, has slowed the distributors’ operations, hampering their ability to quickly process grain as it comes in.
The timing is particularly bad, said Charles Hurburgh, the head of Iowa State University’s Grain Quality Laboratory.
“We’re going into harvest, and right now is when they’re taking in a large amount of grain and putting out a large amount of grain,” Hurburgh said. “It’s a real nasty situation.”
Like many industries, grain production involves heavily digitized operations that were previously done by hand. Hackers who deploy ransomware, locking up their computers and demanding payment, may not be able to stop the distributors entirely, but they can severely slow them down.
The largest of the three known victims, New Cooperative in Iowa, is still working to restore automated systems after it was hacked last month, a spokesperson said in a statement. An employee for another, Farmers Cooperative Co., also in Iowa, declined to comment, citing advice from the company’s attorneys. The third, Crystal Valley in Minnesota, didn’t respond to emails and voicemails.
Private files of all three have been published to ransomware hackers’ websites, which NBC News has viewed, a common tactic for ransomware hackers to deploy against victims who refuse to pay.
While grain is a key component to the U.S. food supply chain, its market is large enough that the country won’t see a noticeable effect from slowed production by three distributors, Hurburgh said.

A group of national security agencies have issued an advisory for the potential of ransomware cyberattacks against two U.S. food and agriculture organizations.
The Cybersecurity and Infrastructure Security Agency (CISA), Federal Bureau of Investigation (FBI) and National Security Agency (NSA) says the advisory includes technical details, analysis of the threat and actions to prevent an attack.
While the release doesn’t identify the targets, the agencies say the attack could be through BlackMatter ransomware, a tool that developers can profit from cybercriminal affiliates who deploy it.
Rob Joyce, Director of Cybersecurity at NSA, says the threat of cyberattacks has gone beyond impacts to a company but has risen to a national security issue.

Tesco's website and app have crashed after what the retail giant said were attempts "to interfere with our systems".
The possible hack at Britain's biggest supermarket began on Saturday with shoppers unable to order goods and track deliveries.
Tesco initially said there was "an issue", but in a Sunday update said there had been deliberate disruption.
The retailer sought to assure customers their data was safe.
But shoppers have complained about a lack of information, with many wanting to know how to cancel orders and whether they can get money back.
A Tesco spokesperson said: "There is no reason to believe that this issue impacts customer data and we continue to take ongoing action to make sure all data stays safe.

US being hit by huge cyber attacks, Microsoft warns
Hundreds of companies and organisations are being hit by a wave of cyber attacks, Microsoft has warned.
The hacking appears to be being perpetrated by the same group as led last year’s massive SolarWinds cyber attack, it said.
This time around, the attacks were looking to target “resellers and other technology service providers” of cloud services, Microsoft wrote in a new blog post.
It has notified 609 different companies that they have been targeted by the attacks over the summer, the company said. Only a small number of those had actually been successful.
US officials confirmed to the New York Times that the operation was underway, with one unnamed senior administration official calling it “unsophisticated, run-of-the mill operations that could have been prevented if the cloud service providers had implemented baseline cybersecurity practices.”
“This recent activity is another indicator that Russia [IAF: it never gets old!] is trying to gain long-term, systematic access to a variety of points in the technology supply chain and establish a mechanism for surveilling — now or in the future — targets of interest to the Russian government,” Microsoft wrote.

The outage, which impacted the website of the Ukrainian Defense Ministry and the Armed Services as well as two large Ukrainian banks, Privatbank and Oschadbank, was the result of a digital denial of service attack, according to multiple Ukrainian government agencies.
The reports quickly generated concern, especially given ongoing U.S. government warnings that Russia might launch a massive cyberattack impacting critical infrastructure in Ukraine, such as communications or banking, prior to an invasion. #FalseFlag

Nestle later defended its decision not to pull out of Russia, noting that it made sweeping changes since President Vladimir Putin invaded Ukraine.
"We have significantly scaled back out activities in Russia: we have stopped all imports and exports from Russia, except for essential products," a spokesperson said in a statement to CNN.
