A recent ransomware attack on a major software provider has caused significant disruptions for several companies, including Starbucks and U.K. grocery chain Morrisons.

The attack targeted Blue Yonder, a software company that provides supply chain technology to global brands. On Thursday, Blue Yonder acknowledged service disruptions caused by the ransomware incident, which affected systems used by various clients.

For Starbucks, the attack impacted the company’s ability to manage barista schedules and track employee hours. As a result, store leaders across North America have been instructed to use manual workarounds until the issue is resolved. Despite these disruptions, Starbucks reassured customers that service at its stores remains unaffected. The company emphasized that ensuring employees are paid correctly for all hours worked is a top priority. By Tuesday morning, Starbucks confirmed that payroll processing had resumed.

Blue Yonder is continuing efforts to restore its services to normal, while affected companies work to resolve any ongoing issues caused by the breach.
