Kurita America Hit by Ransomware Attack

Kurita America Inc. (KAI), a subsidiary of Kurita Water Industries Ltd., experienced a significant ransomware attack on November 29, 2024. The breach involved multiple servers being encrypted, potentially compromising sensitive data related to customers, employees, and business partners. The company responded promptly to the attack by isolating the affected servers in an effort to prevent further damage and contain the situation.

Upon detecting the unauthorized access, Kurita America launched an internal investigation to assess the scale of the breach and determine whether any data had been leaked. Although no definitive evidence of data theft has been confirmed, the company has not ruled out the possibility that certain information could have been exposed. This attack raises concerns over the security of sensitive business and customer data.

In response to the incident, Kurita America is collaborating with cybersecurity experts to investigate the breach and implement measures to enhance its security protocols. The company has also notified relevant stakeholders and is working to ensure that affected individuals are informed. At this stage, Kurita has not disclosed the specific data or systems that were compromised.

While Kurita America has taken swift action to mitigate the impact of the attack, the incident serves as a reminder of the growing risks posed by ransomware and other cyber threats. Organizations are urged to strengthen their cybersecurity defenses to prevent similar attacks and safeguard critical data.
