Food retail giant behind several major US supermarket brands confirms data
stolen in major ransomware breach

Date:
Fri, 18 Apr 2025 15:11:00 +0000

Description:
Investigation into Ahold Delhaize breach is still ongoing.

FULL STORY

Ahold Delhaize, one of the world's largest food retail groups, has confirmed
it lost sensitive data from its US business in a November 2024 cyberattack . 

The confirmation came after the threat actor responsible, INC Ransom, added
the company to its data leak website, sharing sample documents they claim 
were stolen in the attack. 

"Based on our investigation to date, certain files were taken from some of 
our internal U.S. business systems," an Ahold Delhaize spokesperson told
BleepingComputer . "Since the incident was detected, our teams have been
working diligently to determine what information may have been affected." 

Under investigation

In early November 2024, Ahold Delhaize disclosed a cybersecurity incident
which forced it to shut down parts of its IT infrastructure. 

"This issue and subsequent mitigating actions have affected certain Ahold
Delhaize USA brands and services including a number of pharmacies and certain
e-commerce operations," the company said back then. 

The company said that it was still investigating the incident, and if it
determines that customer data was taken, it would notify affected 
individuals. 

"If we determine that personal data was impacted, we will notify affected
individuals as appropriate. In addition, we have notified and updated law
enforcement," Ahold Delhaize added. 

Until the investigation concludes, we wont know how many (if any) customers
are at risk, but its worth mentioning that Ahold Delhaize is a Dutch-Belgian
multinational retail and wholesale holding company, operating some 7,910
stores across Europe, the United States, and Indonesia, and serving around 72
million customers weekly. 

The companys spokesperson told the publication that all of its stores and
e-commerce services are open and operational, and that customers should not
face any problems as a result of the breach.
