Jaguar Land Rover shut down systems after a cyberattack, disrupting production and retail, but says customer data likely remains safe.

Jaguar Land Rover shut down systems to mitigate a cyberattack that disrupted production and retail operations. The attack occurred over the weekend, and it also impacted systems at the Solihull production plant.

UK dealers reported JLR disruptions blocking car registrations and parts supply.

The company says customer data was not compromised. JLR said it is working quickly to restart global applications in a controlled manner after the cyberattack.

“JLR has been impacted by a cyber incident.  We took immediate action to mitigate its impact by proactively shutting down our systems. We are now working at pace to restart our global applications in a controlled manner.” reads the statement published by the automaker. “At this stage there is no evidence any customer data has been stolen but our retail and production activities have been severely disrupt”

The automaker did not disclose technical details about the incident; however, at this time, no ransomware gangs have claimed responsibility for an attack.

Jaguar Land Rover (JLR) is a British luxury vehicle manufacturer headquartered in Whitley, Coventry, UK. JLR combines two iconic brands, Jaguar and Land Rover. Since 2008, JLR has been owned by Tata Motors (India), which bought it from Ford. JLR sells vehicles in over 120 countries, with major markets in Europe, North America, and China.

It remains unclear when the company will fully recover from the incident.
