Australian port operating systems are getting back online, after a major cyberattack halted imports and exports. 

DP World Australia —which moves about 40% of items coming into Australia— stopped on Friday after the breach. 

It created a backlog of 30,000 containers.

Australian Correspondent, Donna Demaio, told Kate Hawkesby that about 4000 containers started moving again yesterday.

She said that the ripple effect they were concerned about is now unlikely, but they still don’t know what happened.
