Jaguar Land Rover to Restart Production After Cyberattack
Imagine a big car company, Jaguar Land Rover (JLR), got a computer virus that shut everything down.
They couldn't make cars for over a month!
Now, after fixing the problem with help from the government and computer experts, they're slowly starting to build cars again.
This is a big step, but it will take time to get everything back to normal.
The shutdown cost the company a lot of money.
The company is working hard to get back on track after this tough situation.
Jaguar Land Rover (JLR) is restarting car production after a cyberattack.
The cyberattack halted production and disrupted parts ordering.
Production will resume in a controlled, phased manner.
JLR is working with cybersecurity specialists and the UK government.
The UK government guaranteed a £1.5 billion loan to support JLR and its suppliers.
