The Federal Bureau of Investigation warned that ransomware attacks against agricultural organizations are more likely in the coming harvest and planting seasons. In a time of global food instability due to the ongoing Russian invasion of Ukraine, such attacks against the US agricultural sector could further cause food supply-chain disruptions. Examples of attacks already committed against the agricultural sector in the US include six (6) grain cooperatives in fall 2021 during harvest season and already in 2022, two (2) attacks against companies that provide seed, fertilizer, and logistics. Specifically, the malware Lockbit 2.0 was utilized in at least one of these attacks, while other pieces of malware utilized included Conti, BlackMatter, Suncrypt, and BlackByte. Ankura will continue to monitor threats towards US critical infrastructure, including global food supply chains.
