The Florentine company Siaf, based in Bagno a Ripoli (Florence), was also hit in the hacker attacks of the last few hours. The company deals with collective catering (canteens) in schools, hospitals and companies.

Siaf itself informs that on 2 November "IT systems dedicated to the management and control of refrigeration were affected by a cyber attack" but "thanks to the monitoring and control systems, the anomaly was promptly detected and the necessary measures were immediately activated, allowing the event to be limited and continuity of service guaranteed, without consequences on operations".

Siaf is in contact with the authorities and law enforcement agencies and "will guarantee maximum collaboration, making every useful element available for the investigation and ascertainment of the nature and origin of the attack".
