Renault UK suffered a cyber attack through a third-party data provider, exposing customer names, addresses, birth dates, phone numbers, and vehicle details. The car manufacturer emphasized that no financial information or passwords were compromised in what they called an "isolated incident."
Unlike Jaguar Land Rover's recent attack that shut down UK production, Renault's manufacturing operations remain unaffected since their own systems weren't breached. The company is contacting affected customers and has notified authorities, though they won't reveal how many people were impacted.
This marks another major automotive cyber attack following JLR's August breach, highlighting the growing threat to car companies' data security.
