US EditionJaguar Land Rover issue major update after cyber attack
Jaguar Land Rover has restarted parts of its IT systems to resume payments to suppliers while UK factories remain closed until at least October 1, impacting 30,000 workers.
- JLR's spokesperson announced parts of its IT systems are back online, extending the production pause until Wednesday, October 1, 2025, as it develops a phased restart plan.
- The August cyber attack forced Jaguar Land Rover to shut down IT networks and suspend production and sales since September 1, halting lines on September 2 and sending workers home.
- The company says its financial wholesale processing system and Global Parts Logistics Centre have been brought back online, speeding sales, registration and parts distribution.
- About 30,000 direct employees and 100,000 supply-chain jobs mean the UK Government is considering buying parts or loans to prevent supplier failures, especially among small businesses.
- With no cyber insurance, JLR faces potential costs of around $6.7 million per day, risking a financial hit that could reach into the hundreds of millions, according to Lockton negotiations.
