Jaguar Land Rover (JLR), owned by Tata Motors, has halted production and instructed staff to stay home following a cyberattack that forced critical IT systems offline, disrupting car sales and production across its UK factories. The attack, attributed to a hacker group, coincided with a peak sales period, significantly impacting operations and parts suppliers. While JLR is working to restore systems, there is currently no evidence of customer data being compromised, although concerns remain about parts availability for existing vehicle owners. This incident underscores the vulnerabilities faced by companies in the automotive sector, especially during a digital transformation phase.
