Tata Electronics Reports Cyberattack Exposing Apple and Tesla Data

Tata Electronics disclosed on Monday that it was the victim of a recent cyberattack. Researchers believe the incident may have exposed Apple and Tesla trade secrets. Tata is one of Apple’s most important manufacturing partners outside of China and accounts for roughly a third of Apple’s iPhone production in India.

The firm is also central to New Delhi’s plans to build India into an electronics manufacturing hub. Last year, cyberattacks crippled manufacturing at Tata-owned Jaguar Land Rover for six weeks. Earlier this year, Washington said Iran-linked cyberattacks were targeting U.S.
