Japanese optical products manufacturer HOYA Corp. was hit by a cyber attack at the end of February which led to a partial shutdown of its production lines from Thailand for three days. The company disclosed that around 100 computers were infected with a malware strain designed to steal user credentials from the machines it compromises and to drop a cryptocurrency miner during the infection process’ second stage. Toyota and Norsk Hydro also under attack this year with multiple Toyota and Lexus sales subsidiaries being breached. In addition, also during March, the aluminum company was forced to switch to partial manual operations after LockerGoga ransomware impacted its production plants.
