A major cyber attack on DP World, a prominent logistics company, has resulted in the shutdown of several Australian ports, according to Australia’s National Cyber Security Coordinator. The attack occurred late last Friday, causing DP World’s technology systems to go offline. As a result, four Australian ports have remained closed since then. DP World is responsible for handling 40 percent of the containers entering Australia’s ports, making the incident highly significant. Despite the closure, authorities have reassured the public that essential supplies will continue to be delivered and distributed. The exact nature of the cyber attack has not been disclosed, but the National Cyber Security Coordinator has emphasized that the immediate priority is to restore services rather than identify the perpetrators. Restoring functionality is of paramount importance, while attributing the attack will be addressed at a later stage.
