The U.S. Federal Bureau of Investigation (FBI) Cyber Division warned private industry partners of incoming cyberattacks against the US automotive industry targeting sensitive corporate and enterprise data. The automotive industry is facing an increased barrage of incoming malicious attacks and threats according to the FBI seeing that the wide range and large quantity of information it collects becomes progressively more valuable for threat actors. The agency says that phishing and brute force attacks against automotive industry entities have already successfully compromised several organizations and companies during 2019. The FBI also provides some recommendations to automotive companies that want to successfully defend their assets against future cyber attacks.
