FULL STORY
======================================================================Asahi 
and Jaguar Land Rover continue to recover following cyberattacks Both attacks 
halted production and shut down systems The two companies are now slowly 
starting production again 

Both Jaguar Land Rover (JLR) and Asahi are apparently set to resume 
production following significant cyberattacks which halted work at both 
organizations. 

For JLR, this will come as a relief given that production has been 
considerably affected for just over a month , with systems shutdowns and 
plant closures that saw workers in Merseyside and Solihul sent home whilst 
the company took proactive measures to mitigate the damage. 

Still, the recovery wont be easy for JLR, which will reportedly have to face 
costs of millions per week due to a lack of cyber-insurance cover. The 
company was apparently negotiating for cover as the attack happened, but has 
since been written a 1.5 bn loan from the UK government to support the 30,000 
JLR employees and further 200,000 workers affected in the supply chain.

For alcohol giant Asahi, operations and shipments were suspended in up to 30 
plants after a cyberattack caused a system failure across its Japanese 
operations. 

With a 40% share of the Japanese beer market, the disruption has been 
widespread, causing shortages in bars and restaurants - although its European 
brands including Fullers and Peroni were unaffected. 

The attack caused a systems outage that affected order processing, shipping, 
and call-center functions in Japan. 

The Asahi attack shows just how costly operational downtime can be when cyber 
resilience isnt robust enough to withstand disruption, comments Andy Ward, 
SVP International of Absolute Security.
