CDK Global Car Crash: Dealership Software Down After Double Cyberattack Disaster
CDK Global, the software giant for 15,000 North American car dealerships, is down after a cyberattack. Dealerships are back to pen and paper, proving that sometimes the future really is written in ink.
Hot Take:
Looks like CDK Global’s software is having a worse week than a car with a blown head gasket! Who knew we’d be time-traveling back to the 90s with pen and paper? At this rate, dealerships might start trading in their computers for typewriters. Keep those pens handy, folks!
Key Points:
- CDK Global down for the second day after a cyberattack.
- Dealerships across North America unable to access vital internal systems.
- CDK Global initially restored systems only to shut them down again after a second incident.
- Dealerships revert to manual processes; back to the good ol’ paper and pen days.
- No information on the cause or perpetrator of the attack, and no ETA for resolution.
