Ransomware Attack on Bio-Rad Laboratories Network
bio-rad.comI'm a biologist who purchases reagents from Bio-Rad. I received this email last night: December 10, 2019
"Bio-Rad Dear Valued Customers:
At approximately 5:30 PM (Pacific Standard Time) on December 5, Bio‑Rad detected a ransomware attack on our global network. We immediately took certain systems offline as part of the company’s comprehensive response to contain the activity, which means there may be a delay in fulfilling your orders.
Work is ongoing to restore full system functionality as quickly as possible. Our top priority is taking care of you, our customers, so you can place orders and receive products as quickly as possible."
