Tata Group’s electronics subsidiary in India has confirmed it was hit by a cybersecurity incident. This follows media reports that sensitive supplier data, such as specifications for Apple and Tesla, was stolen and posted on the dark web.

“A few weeks ago, Tata Electronics identified a cybersecurity incident on some of our systems,” the spokesperson said. They also said the company acted immediately and that all business units continued to run as normal.
