Italian drinks maker Campari hit by Ragnar Locker ransomware attack


Operations at Italian drinks maker Davide Campari-Milano S.p.A., best known simply as Campari, were knocked offline last week following a ransomware attack.

The stolen data is said to include accounting files, bank statements, employee personal information and more totaling 2 terabytes.

“If no deal is made than [sic] all your data with be published and/or sold through an auction to any third parties,” the note adds. Some of the stolen data has already been posted on a leak site, including a contract between Wild Turkey and actor Matthew McConaughey.

Although there are various forms of ransomware and related gangs, those behind Ragnor Locker have been particularly busy, allegedly also targeting Japanese video games developer Capcom Co. Ltd. this week.

“This recent ransomware attack on Campari shows that cybercriminals are not just interested in targeting technology companies,” Boris Cipot, senior sales engineer at electronic design automation company Synopsys Inc., told…
