Hot Take:

Even luxury cars aren’t immune to the digital age’s potholes! Jaguar Land Rover (JLR) has hit a bump in the road with a cyberattack, and it seems the hackers weren’t just interested in test-driving their latest Range Rover. While the automaker assures us that customer data is safe, it looks like their production line needs some serious roadside assistance. Here’s hoping they can jump-start their systems and get back on the highway to success!

Key Points:

  • JLR experienced a cyberattack, leading to system shutdowns.
  • The company’s production and retail operations are significantly disrupted.
  • Customer data is reportedly unaffected, according to the company.
  • No ransomware group has claimed responsibility for the attack yet.
  • The auto giant is working to restore systems globally in a controlled manner.
