Freight giant DP World recovers from cyber attack, but warns investigation and remediation is ‘ongoing’

Melbourne, Australia – 13 November 2023
Shipping giant DP World Australia says its systems are working at its ports again, following a brief cyber attack which crippled the company’s operations.
The company moves about 40 per cent of the nation’s freight, and it was feared that a prolonged cybersecurity breach would make life harder for importers, retailers and Christmas shoppers — particularly those seeking items in hot demand around the world, like electronics.
