Coca-Cola confirms hackers stole data in Fairlife attack.

Coca-Cola confirms hackers stole data in Fairlife attack. Representatives of Coca-Cola have confirmed that the ransomware attack on its dairy brand Fairlife involved data theft. Earlier, the Anubis hacking group claimed it had encrypted the company's infrastructure and stolen approximately 1 TB of corporate data. Since the deadline set in the hackers' ultimatum has expired, the dump has already been published on the ransomware group's website. The attack on Coca-Cola's dairy subsidiary Fairlife became known in mid-July 2026, when the company filed a relevant notice with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC). As a result of the incident, Coca-Cola had to temporarily halt production at all four Fairlife facilities in the United States. The attack reportedly affected systems related to production, but Coca-Cola stressed that the incident did not affect product quality or safety. Shortly afterward, the Anubis ransomware group claimed responsibility for the attack. The threat actors said they had encrypted Nutanix infrastructure and stolen approximately 1 TB of sensitive files from Fairlife. The hackers also stressed that it would be impossible to restore the affected systems without the decryption key. After discovering the attack, Coca-Cola representatives notified law enforcement, but did not follow the attackers' instructions or enter into negotiations with them. Initially, the company did not confirm Anubis members' claims at all and refused to discuss the possible data theft with the media. Coca-Cola representatives have now acknowledged that the attackers gained access to some of Fairlife's systems and stole data. However, the company still has not disclosed exactly what information was compromised or how many files may ultimately have fallen into the hands of the extortionists. Production at the four affected Fairlife facilities has already been almost fully restored, although recovery of certain systems and operations is still ongoing. The company said that existing inventory helped prevent serious shortages, and the attack had little impact on product availability in stores. According to the company's management, the incident has not had and is unlikely to have a material impact on Coca-Cola's financial condition or operating results. As BleepingComputer reports, the deadline Anubis gave Coca-Cola to begin ransom negotiations expired on July 27. As a result, the stolen files have already been published on the group's website.

Coca-Cola's Fairlife returns to full production after data breach disruption.

Coca-Cola's Fairlife returns to full production after data breach disruption. The Coca-Cola Company announced that Fairlife has restarted production at all four of its U.S. facilities after recovering from a significant data security incident that disrupted operations earlier this month. Earlier this month, in a filing with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission, Coca-Cola said that on July 16, Fairlife detected unauthorised third-party access to a portion of its systems, including production-related systems, as part of a ransomware incident. The company launched an investigation with external cybersecurity experts, activated response and continuity measures, and notified law enforcement authorities. Coca-Cola said product quality and safety remained unaffected, but the cybersecurity incident temporarily halted production at Fairlife facilities in the United States, while operations in Canada continued without disruption. The Anubis ransomware group claimed responsibility for the cyber attack on Coca-Cola's Fairlife subsidiary, listing it as a victim on its data leak site. The group said it stole confidential company data and threatened to publish the information if ransom demands were not met. Coca-Cola has not verified the group's claims. In a seperate post, Anubis said that negotiations with Coca-Cola fell apart, following which it destroyed the decryption keys, and leaked the entire stolen database. The group further stated that the data leak caused Coca-Cola losses amounting to millions. In a recent update, Coca-Cola said Fairlife has restored the majority of production at its four U.S. facilities, while product availability in retail stores has remained largely unaffected due to existing inventory. The company added that product quality and safety standards were not impacted. "Based on the information currently available, the company believes the incident has not had, and is not reasonably likely to have, a material impact on the company's financial condition or results of operations," Coca-Cola added.

Anubis ransomware gang claims attack on Coca-Cola's Fairlife, threatens to leak stolen data.

Anubis ransomware gang claims attack on Coca-Cola's Fairlife, threatens to leak stolen data. by Nikolaus Dreher Security News Published: 2026 July 22, 08:32 The Anubis ransomware gang has claimed responsibility for the cyberattack that recently disrupted operations at Fairlife, the dairy company owned by Coca-Cola. The group alleges it stole approximately one terabyte of corporate data and has threatened to publish the information unless an undisclosed ransom demand is met. At the time of writing, Coca-Cola has not confirmed whether data was exfiltrated or commented on Anubis' claims. The claim appeared on Anubis' dark web leak site several days after Coca-Cola disclosed that Fairlife had suffered a ransomware incident affecting production systems. In its earlier disclosure, the company said an unauthorized third party had accessed portions of Fairlife's infrastructure, including systems used in manufacturing. As a precaution, Fairlife temporarily suspended production at all of its U.S. facilities while recovery efforts began. Canadian production sites were not affected, and Coca-Cola said product quality and safety had not been compromised. According to the ransomware group's post, the attackers obtained roughly one terabyte of internal company data during the intrusion. However, Anubis has not released evidence verifying the full extent of the alleged theft, and Coca-Cola has not confirmed whether sensitive corporate information or customer data was accessed. Like many ransomware operations, the group is using the threat of publishing stolen files to pressure the victim into paying a ransom. Fairlife, headquartered in Chicago, produces ultra-filtered milk, protein shakes, and other dairy products that are distributed throughout the United States. The company has grown into one of Coca-Cola's fastest-expanding businesses, generating billions of dollars in annual retail sales. The temporary shutdown of U.S. production highlighted the operational impact the cyberattack had on the company's manufacturing systems, although Coca-Cola has not disclosed how long recovery is expected to take. After detecting the incident, Coca-Cola activated its incident response and business continuity procedures and retained external cybersecurity specialists to assist with the investigation. The company also notified law enforcement authorities and said it is continuing to assess the scope and business impact of the attack. Coca-Cola has not indicated whether it has been in contact with the attackers or whether any ransom demand has been received directly. Anubis is a relatively recent ransomware operation that combines data theft with extortion. According to security researchers, the group has also employed destructive tactics, including file-wiping capabilities, to increase pressure on victims during negotiations. Whether those techniques were used during the Fairlife incident has not been confirmed.
