Risk to Business: 1.201 = Extreme

Thousands of car dealers are facing disruptions due to two cyberattacks on CDK Global, an industry software provider. The BlackSuit ransomware group claimed responsibility. The attack led to ongoing outages in sales, financing and payroll systems, forcing some dealers to revert to manual operations. The first attack occurred last Tuesday evening, prompting CDK to shut down systems as a precaution on Wednesday. Although some systems were restored by Wednesday afternoon, a second incident occurred that evening, continuing to affect many dealers by Friday. Experts suggest CDK may have prematurely restored systems without fully resolving the issue, which could take weeks to fix.
