Campari Group, the famed Italian beverage vendor behind brands like Campari, Cinzano, and Appleton, has been hit by a ransomware attack and has taken down a large part of its IT network.
The attack took place last Sunday, on November 1, and has been linked to the RagnarLocker ransomware gang, according to a copy of the ransom note shared with ZDNet by a malware researcher who goes online by the name of Pancak3. [...]

The Italian company appears to have chosen to restore its encrypted systems rather than pay the ransom demand, according to a short press release published on Tuesday, where Campari said it's working on a "progressive restart in safety conditions."
In the same press release, Campari also said it detected the intrusion as soon as it took place and immediately moved in to isolate impacted systems, and that the incident is not expected to have any significant impact on its financial results.
