In light of the recent cyber incident involving Jaguar Land Rover (JLR), the Department for Business and Trade (DBT) and the Society of Motor Manufacturers and Traders (SMMT) have issued a joint statement to address the situation and outline the collaborative efforts underway to manage the repercussions of this event.
The cyber incident, which reportedly affected operational functions within JLR, highlights the increasing vulnerabilities faced by businesses in the digital age. Both the DBT and SMMT have expressed their deep concern over the implications such attacks can have not only on individual companies but also on the wider automotive industry and its reputation for innovation and security.
The statement reinforces the commitment of both organisations to prioritising cybersecurity measures across the automotive sector. They emphasise the importance of robust systems and protocols to safeguard sensitive information and ensure the continuity of business operations. The DBT has reiterated its support for JLR as they navigate the recovery process and implement enhanced security measures.
Industry stakeholders are urged to remain vigilant and to collaborate closely in sharing knowledge and best practices to mitigate the risk of future cyber threats. The collective expertise within the automotive sector is invaluable in developing resilient frameworks that can withstand such challenges.
Furthermore, both the DBT and SMMT are actively working with JLR to provide the necessary support and resources during this difficult period. This partnership underscores the importance of unity in the face of adversity, reinforcing that the industry can recover and emerge stronger from such setbacks.
As further developments unfold, the DBT and SMMT will continue to keep the public informed and engaged, ensuring transparency and accountability throughout the recovery process. The resilience of the automotive industry is paramount, and together, we will strive to foster an environment that prioritises security, trust, and innovation in navigating the road ahead.
