 Transnet, responsible for operation of rail and ports in the Republic of South Africa has announced that a second cyberattack has occurred following a previous intrusion on July 22nd. Ship movements, clearing and tracking of containers will have to be effected manually until computer service can be restored. Ports at Durban, Cape Town, and Ngqura are involved. Durban harbor handles 60 percent of container trade and is the largest port in Sub-Saharan Africa.
The delays encountered as a result of the cyberattack will impact shipments of chicken and turkey to the Republic of South Africa.
