YaKuZa--BoSs Posted June 12, 2020 Posted June 12, 2020 According to the Japanese group, the attack affected 11 factories worldwide. Japanese Honda motorcycle factories are still closed in India and Brazil on Wednesday as a result of a cyberattack that disrupted their global production network last Monday. All of the group's factories in the United States have been restarted, as well as its production plant in Turkey since Wednesday, according to a Honda spokesperson. A total of 11 factories in the group were affected by the attack earlier this week, including five sites in the United States, according to Japanese media. The financial impact of these interruptions should be limited, said the aforementioned spokesperson. Like all other automakers, Honda has been hit hard by the coronavirus crisis, which has forced it to shut down much of its global production system in recent months. The group posted a drop of more than 25% of its net profit in its last fiscal year 2019/20 ending March 31, with a 6% decrease in global sales. It has not yet released the results forecast for 2020/21 at the moment, given the lack of visibility in the face of the evolution of the pandemic, simply acknowledging that the context was "very severe" for its operations. 1 1
