Several major ports in Australia shut down after cyber attack: tens of thousands of containers are piling up

Tens of thousands of cargo containers are piling up at ports in Australia after port operator DP World was hit by a cyber attack on Friday. This was reported by the business newspaper ‘Australian Financial Review’ on Sunday. It is impossible for trucks to drive into the terminals to pick up or drop off their shipments because the systems are offline, the newspaper said. At the same time, ships can still load and unload containers.
