Toyota’s cyber woes continue as latest breach marks fifth major IT incident in two years

Posted on August 27, 2024 by Dissent

Solomon Klappholz reports:

Toyota is once again in the headlines after a hacker collective claimed to have exfiltrated 240GB of sensitive data from the car manufacturer’s internal systems.

Toyota has confirmed its network was breached after a threat actor listed a 240GB trove of data stolen from the company’s internal systems on an underground hacking forum.

The Japanese car manufacturer admitted its systems had been compromised on 19 August, after a threat collective operating under the name ZeroSevenGroup said it breached one of the firm’s US branches.

The cache is said to contain sensitive personal information on the company’s staff and customers, including financial information, emails, photos, databases, and network infrastructure, according to ZeroSevenGroup.
