Starbucks impacted by ransomware attack on software vendor

Starbucks said Monday that a ransomware attack on a third-party software provider is hindering its ability to track baristas’ hours and manage their pay. 

The November 21 cyberattack targeted supply-chain management software maker Blue Yonder, which lets Starbucks employees view and manage their schedules and allows the company to account for their time at work. 

According to Starbucks, it’s one of a number of companies rattled by the attack, which was first reported by the Wall Street Journal.
