Jaguar Land Rover tells staff to stay at home following cyber attack

Jaguar Land Rover (JLR) confirmed that the production stop will be released next week because the luxury car manufacturer continued to sprinkle it from a significant cyber attack.

The factory personnel will be waiting for the bosses closely watching the developing situation, but at least they were instructed to leave work until Wednesday.

Production was initially paused last week, including JLR’s Halewood Factory in Merseyside, the Solihull Factory in West Midlands and the engine production area in Wolverhampton.

Employees were first told to not return until 9 September, but this period was extended at least one more week due to ongoing interruptions in the production lines.

The UK -based manufacturer was forced to close its systems on August 31st after detecting a cyber attack affecting global operations.

A spokesman said that the company was “working around the day” to continue production, distribute cyber security experts and apply temporary solutions to provide some activity.

However, although he did not specify who was affected by customers or staff, he warned that he believed that “some data” was accessed in a hack.

The company said that if he found that his data was affected, he had communicated with people.

Business Minister Sir Chris Bryant said that the big cyber attack on Jaguar Land Rover would not be state -backed and could not confirm or reject it.

A English -speaking hacker, who calls himself “Rey ,, claimed responsibility for Hack.

The worst affected is the last of the cyber attacks that affect M & S, Co-op and Harrods and England businesses.

M& S had to stop online sales for about six weeks and warned that the incident could cost around £ 300 million.

On Wednesday, the train operator Lner, passengers’ contact information and some information about past journeys were accessed in a cyber attack.
