Russian dairy supply disrupted by cyberattack on animal certification system therecord.media/russia-da…

Russian dairy producers have reported supply disruptions following a cyberattack on the country’s digital system for certifying animal-based products.

The Mercury platform, part of Russia’s Federal State Information System for Veterinary Surveillance (VetIS), was taken offline earlier this week due to the attack — the third such incident this year and the most severe to date, according to local media reports.

No group has claimed responsibility for the attack, and it has not been attributed to any known threat actor.
