The cyber attack which was conducted on Jaguar Land Rover is going to cause them around 1.9 billion pound and it is going to be economically the highest hacking event which has happened in the history of United Kingdom as per the different researchers.
There are different experts at CMC, cyber monitoring centre who have analysed this and they are telling this .Actually JLR has declined to comment on the research but its obviously has told that it is bringing new areas of manufacturing back online in phased manner . CMC is an independent non profit organisation which analysis and categorizes cyber hacking cyber attack events which impact UK financially. It has classified incident as a category 3 event which is very which is very WORSE considering category 5 is considered to be severe.
Martin, chairman of CMC technical committee has told that with a cost of nearly 2 billion pounds this instance looks to have been the single most financially damaging cyber attack event in United Kingdom that should make us think the organisation needs to identify the networks that matter to them and how to protect them better and then plan for how they would go if the network want to go down.
This was the second report which was published by CMC which basically can takes information from publicly available information service and interviews with industry expert all the national Cyber security centre also investigates cyber tax depending on how they are severe it does not published its finding.
The hacking begin in the late August 2026 which caused suppliers’ shut down and halt in global manufacturing operations including its major UK plans .Dealer systems were immeidately unavailable and suppliers had to cancel or delay orders with uncertainty about future supply over half of the cost will be borne by company jlr which will include loss of earnings and recovery cost
The other half is to be incurred by 5000 firms is JLR supply chain as well as the local economy including hospitality and other services. Data is very difficult to recover from for example ransomware attack disrupt victims computer network. Wiper attack that would in fact computer network and destroys data with no chance of reversal even more dangerous . Group of hackers assumed to be young English speaking and welding to previous high profile hacks claim to behind it but there is no confirmation
