Ransomware halts container operations at PORT OF NAGOYA
In early July 2023, ransomware shut down the Nagoya Port Unified Terminal System, halting container handling across terminals and forcing manual workarounds. Operations resumed after roughly two days. Local reporting linked the attack to LOCKBIT, and Toyota temporarily could not load or unload auto parts.
