Exploit: Ransomware
Denso: Automotive Parts Manufacturer
Risk to Business: 1.402 = Extreme
Cybercrime group Pandora released a statement on Sunday saying it had snatched sensitive data from Denso, a supplier to Toyota. Just two weeks ago, Toyota had been forced to halt production in Japan because of a supply chain cybersecurity incident and this appears to be it. The company disclosed that it had detected unauthorized access to its network using ransomware at DENSO Automotive Deutschland GmbH, an associated firm in Germany. No information about the ransom or specifics on stolen data were available.
Individual Impact: No information about consumer/employee PII, PHI or financial data exposure was available at press time.
