Panasonic-owned software giant Blue Yonder said several of its customers’ systems are back up and running, as the gang allegedly behind the incident came forward on Friday to boast about troves of stolen data.

A Blue Yonder spokesperson declined to speak about the claims made by the Termite ransomware gang or whether a ransom had been issued but said the company is “making good progress” in recovering from the cyberattack that was initially announced ahead of the Thanksgiving holiday on November 21.

“Several of our impacted customers have been brought back online, and we are actively working directly with others to return them to normal business operations,” the spokesperson said.

“Blue Yonder has been working diligently together with external cybersecurity firms and hardened our defensive and forensic protocols.”

The company — which has been at the center of supply chain and operational issues for supermarkets, manufacturers and even companies like Starbucks — published a similar statement last weekend. 

On Friday, the Termite gang claimed it stole 680 GB of data that includes emails, insurance documents, company data and more. 

Cybersecurity expert Valéry Rieß-Marchive noted that the gang has been active since April and previously took credit for an attack on the government of French island nation Réunion. Termite has listed several victims across the world, many of which have not confirmed whether they have been attacked.

Some ransomware researchers have tied the code used by the gang to the Babuk ransomware family. Last week cybersecurity firm Trend Micro said there are still errors in the malware that the group is working out.

At least one security firm said Blue Yonder had been attacked by another ransomware gang in 2021. 

The company was acquired by Panasonic in 2021 for about $8.5 billion and provides systems for fulfillment, delivery and returns for more than 3,000 major companies across 76 countries.
