Coca-Cola says Fairlife milk production remains paused following a cyberattack, adding that product quality and safety have not been compromised.
The dairy company, which is owned by Coca-Cola, said this week it had detected an unauthorized user accessing its milk production systems. The company said it activated its incident response protocols and started investigating.
“After detecting the issue, the company promptly activated its incident response and business continuity protocols,” the Coca-Cola Company said in a Thursday press release.
“The company’s investigation and assessment of the impact of the incident is ongoing, with the assistance of outside advisors and cybersecurity experts. The company has also notified law enforcement. The full scope, nature and impacts of the incident are not yet known.”
Fairlife is one of Coca-Cola’s most popular brands. The milk brand, which was introduced to the general public in 2014, specializes in ultra-filtered milk and protein shakes. In 2020, the company was acquired by Coke for approximately $980 million.
