INCIDENT

Japanese auto parts manufacturer Yorozu suffered a cyberattack. The attack forced the company to disconnect and isolate infected systems. The company issued a statement 9 days later saying they are "assessing the extent of the impact and the state of damage. Through our investigations so far, we have confirmed the possibility of some leakage of personal - and confidential information".

The resulting delay in the submission of the semi-annual report is expected to have financial implications.
