JBS S.A. ransomware attack
José Batista Sobrinho
JBS S.A. is the world’s largest meat processor by sales. On May 30, 2021, ransomware disabled its beef and pork slaughterhouses in the US, Canada, and Australia. It paid $11 million in Bitcoin. The White House attributed the attack to a Russian organisation; news outlets named REvil. REvil did not claim responsibility before its infrastructure vanished on July 13, 2021.
