- Cyber risk if connection stays active Supported estimate
- ransomware at Meridian Stamping, containment in_progress, data integrity in question. 3 of their systems unavailable. — source: Supplier notification (VP Operations, phone + letter)
- Operational consequence of isolation Verified fact
- 10 interfaces stop: 3 have no manual fallback, 2 are tested. Order release and shipment confirmation move to manual handling. — source: Interface register
- ERP / EDI transactions affected Verified fact
- 830 Planning Schedule (EDI, fallback documented); 862 Shipping Schedule (EDI, fallback documented); 856 ASN inbound (EDI, fallback tested); 810 Invoice (EDI, fallback documented) — source: Interface register
- Evidence currently available Supported estimate
- Supplier tunnel isolation confirmation (validated 2026-03-17T14:00:00.000Z) — source: Evidence register
Consequence of delay
Every hour the connection stays open allows possibly tampered master and order data to propagate into our ERP, which would require rollback rather than reconciliation.
Approvals required
- Cyber lead approval
- IT integration approval
Calculation and rule trace
- Rule: isolate when containment ≠ contained OR data integrity is in question. Containment = in_progress; data integrity concern = yes.
- Decision window = 2h cyber standard for an uncontained event, independent of the production countdown.
