Asahi Group’s Production Halt: Cyberattack Exposes Vulnerabilities and Raises Security Concerns
A cyberattack has forced Japanese beverage giant Asahi Group Holdings to halt production at its domestic factories, with no timeline for resuming operations. The company is still assessing the full impact, including whether all 30 Japanese plants have been affected. Operations such as order processing, shipping, and call centers have also been suspended following the system outage. While the extent of the damage is being investigated, the company has confirmed no personal information was leaked.
