Tata Technologies reports ransomware attack to Indian stock exchange

Indian multinational engineering company Tata Technologies recently dealt with a ransomware attack that prompted the shutdown of several IT systems. 

In a statement to Recorded Future News, the company said it immediately launched an investigation after the cyberattack was discovered.

“There has been no disruption to our operations, and we continue to deliver services to our customers seamlessly,” a spokesperson said. 

The company declined to provide details on what ransomware gang was responsible, which divisions were impacted or whether data was stolen. It also did not respond to questions about when the incident occurred.

The company filed documents on Friday with the National Stock Exchange of India explaining that the ransomware attack affected “a few … IT assets.”

“As a precautionary measure, some of the IT services were suspended temporarily and have now been restored. Our Client delivery services have remained fully functional and unaffected throughout,” the filing said. 

No ransomware gang has taken credit for the attack as of Friday afternoon.

A subsidiary of Tata Motors, one of the largest corporations in the world, Tata Technologies specializes in automotive, aerospace and industrial engineering. The company, which operates in 27 countries, reported a revenue of $156.6 million last quarter.

Another division of the corporation, the energy giant Tata Power, reported a cyber incident in 2022 that also impacted some of its IT infrastructure.
