Volvo corporate hacked

Post by matthew1 »

I don't look forward to this aspect of The Future. Not at all. I look forward to the connected, efficient nature of an EV society, but not this part of that.

From their press release early this morning:
Notice of cyber security breach by third party

Volvo Cars has become aware that one of its file repositories has been illegally accessed by a third party. Investigations so far confirm that a limited amount of the company's R&D property has been stolen during the intrusion. Volvo Cars has earlier today concluded, based on information available, that there may be an impact on the company’s operation.

After detecting the unauthorised access, the company immediately implemented security countermeasures including steps to prevent further access to its property and notified relevant authorities.

Volvo Cars is conducting its own investigation and working with third-party specialist to investigate the property theft. The company does not see, with currently available information, that this has an impact on the safety or security of its customers' cars or their personal data.
