Have been trying to get some autobody repairs done on a company van that was rear ended and has been taking forever to get parts. The autobody shop told me all the car dealerships got hacked and can't invoice anything. Apparently over 15,000 dealerships are totally crippled right now.

I wonder what hit them.
Some company called CDK Global was hacked for ransom by BlackSuit on June 19th
Ransomware attack on a private equity-acquired ERP software that hella dealers use called CDK Global. The vulture capitalist fuckers probably axed a lot of their cybersecurity dept in efforts to increase revenue.
So much personal information is on the line
Again… a 3rd of Americans were exposed to United Health Group’s attack in March. Data custodians are repeatedly proven incompetent and retarded 🙄 Experians leak is another that comes to mind. Boils my blood 😡
Public is forced to give information and then it is leaked and used against you. Totally fucked.
Big ooof.
yeah, it's a nice time to not be needing to fix your car
Fortunately it is all covered by others insurance and merely cosmetic
