A recent data breach on Sobeys has revealed a larger issue in Canada's agri-food sector, an expert said.

Sylvain Charlebois, a food researcher and professor at Dalhousie University in Halifax, said the industry has been particularly vulnerable to cyberattacks in recent weeks.He said this most recent incident, which Sobeys has said is now resolved, is going to serve as a bit of a wake-up call for the country's agri-food sector because of the high-value, low-margin nature of the industry.

Quebec's access to information commission said confidentiality incidents occur when there is unauthorized access, use or loss of personal information or any other breach of the protection of this information.Over the weekend, Maple Leaf Foods Inc. was hit by a cybersecurity attack that impacted operations early into the week.

Issues at Empire-operated pharmacies, including Sobeys pharmacies and Lawtons Drugs, were first reported over the weekend, and some locations in Halifax Tuesday had signs posted warning customers of the ongoing technical problem.
