Askul, a Japanese e-commerce and logistics company, suffered a ransomware attack in October, compromising over 700,000 records. The RansomHouse group claimed responsibility and leaked data after the company refused to pay a ransom. The breach affected both customer and business partner information, disrupting logistics and operations.

Japanese retailer Muji has halted online orders due to a ransomware attack that crippled its logistics partner, Askul. The attack has disrupted various services, leaving customers facing error messages and causing cancellations of pending orders. Both companies are investigating the incident but have not disclosed details about the ransomware group involved or any potential data breaches.
