Baltimore, MD – Sept. 24, 2023 – Clorox, a key supplier of disinfecting wipes, faces operational disruptions due to a recent cyberattack, leading to potential shortages in Maryland as flu season approaches, according to Pikesville Patch. The attack forced the company to switch to manual order processing, slowing down operations. While Clorox is working towards restoring its IT infrastructure and resuming normal operations, the timeline for complete recovery remains uncertain. This comes at an inopportune time with the onset of flu season, potentially impacting the availability of disinfecting products in Maryland and possibly other regions.
