Ingram Micro, a global leader in technology and supply chain services, has officially confirmed that it experienced a ransomware attack affecting parts of its internal systems.
What’s Going On?
According to a company statement, Ingram Micro recently identified ransomware activity targeting specific internal systems. While the full extent of the incident is still being investigated, the company took immediate steps to isolate and contain the attack as soon as it was discovered.
At this time, Ingram Micro has not disclosed:
Whether any customer or partner data was compromised. How the ransomware entered the system. If a ransom was demanded or paid.
How Is Ingram Micro Responding?
The company is actively working with cybersecurity experts and law enforcement to investigate the breach and strengthen its defenses. Ingram Micro says it is also focused on restoring affected systems and ensuring that day-to-day operations continue with minimal disruption.
So far, there have been no major reports of service outages, which suggests the attack may have been limited to internal operations rather than customer-facing systems.
Why This Matters
This incident is part of a growing trend: ransomware attacks are becoming more frequent, more sophisticated, and more costly. Even large corporations with strong IT infrastructures are not immune.
Ingram Micro plays a key role in the global tech supply chain, distributing hardware, software, and cloud services to thousands of companies worldwide. A serious cyberattack on such a company could have ripple effects across industries—which is why this story matters to businesses, partners, and IT professionals alike.
What’s Next?
As investigations continue, Ingram Micro has promised to:
Share updates as more information becomes available. Strengthen its cybersecurity posture to prevent future attacks. Communicate transparently with stakeholders and customers.
