A significant cyberattack has targeted a major grocery chain, disrupting operations and raising concerns about the security of the company's systems. The incident highlights the growing threat of ransomware and the vulnerabilities within the retail sector. Investigations are ongoing to assess the full impact and prevent future attacks.

Harrods has confirmed an attempted cyberattack, making it the third major UK retailer to face similar incidents in recent weeks, following Co-op and M&S. The UK's National Cyber Security Centre is now assisting these retailers as experts warn of a coordinated cybercriminal campaign targeting the retail sector. While no ransomware has been officially confirmed, speculation surrounds the involvement of known cybercriminal groups.
