Coca-Cola and its bottling partner, Coca-Cola Europacific Partners (CCEP), are grappling with separate cyberattack claims from two distinct threat groups.
The disruption is felt across the environment, affecting HR systems and Salesforce dashboard, and exposing personally identifiable information (PII), employee records and customer support logs, with nearly ['959 (employee records)', '23 million+ (Salesforce records)'] records at risk.
Formal response steps have not been shared publicly yet.
The case underscores how ongoing.
Finally, we try to match the incident with the MITRE ATT&CK framework to see if there is any correlation between the incident and the MITRE ATT&CK framework.
The MITRE ATT&CK framework is a knowledge base of techniques and sub-techniques that are used to describe the tactics and procedures of cyber adversaries. It is a powerful tool for understanding the threat landscape and for developing effective defense strategies.
