Meat and leather group JBS has confirmed that it had to pay a ransom of $11 million to the group responsible for a cyberattack on its US division at the end of May.

JBS USA said on June 3 that the attack, which affected its IT systems and prevented its operations from functioning fully, was over and that it had lost less than one full day of production. It said it expected to recover the lost volume within a week.
