Ransomware Attack at New Zealand Auxo Software Company
INCIDENT
Confidential client information has been stolen in a cyberattack and blackmail attempt by overseas hackers against Software company Auxo.
Auxo software is used in 50 per cent of vehicle workshops nationwide, and at 40 per cent of NZ vehicle dealers.
Auxo - which is wholly owned by the Motor Trade Association (MTA) - will not say how many clients may have been affected nor how much the ransom demand was for.
