"With a cost of nearly 2bn, this incident looks to have been by some distance, the single most financially damaging cyber event ever to hit the UK. That should make us all pause and think. Every organisation needs to identify the networks that matter to them, and how to protect them better, and then plan for how they'd cope if the network gets disrupted."
"JLR declined to comment on the research but said it is bringing portions of manufacturing back online in a phased approach."
"The hack began in late August causing an IT shutdown and a halt in global manufacturing operations, including its major UK plants at Solihull, Halewood, and Wolverhampton."
Researchers estimate the cyber attack on Jaguar Land Rover will cost about £1.9bn and rank as the most financially damaging cyber event in UK history. The hack started in late August, caused an IT shutdown and halted global manufacturing, stopping production on 1 September for five weeks at major UK plants in Solihull, Halewood and Wolverhampton. Dealer systems were intermittently unavailable and suppliers faced cancelled or delayed orders. The Cyber Monitoring Centre classifies the incident as Category 3 and reports 5,000 businesses affected. Jaguar Land Rover is bringing portions of manufacturing back online in a phased approach. Full recovery is not expected until January 2026.
