This is one of the many reasons why it should be illegal for companies to gather and/or store more data than is critical to fulfill the agreed upon functionality, which in the case of a car is zero data. They don't need any data at all, yet they're hoarding everything they can get their dirty paws on.

"We have hacked a branch in United States to one of the biggest automotive manufacturer in the world (TOYOTA). We are really glad to share the files with you here for free. The data size: 240 GB," the threat actor claims.

"Contents: Everything like Contacts, Finance, Customers, Schemes, Employees, Photos, DBs, Network infrastructure, Emails, and a lot of perfect data. We also offer you AD-Recon for all the target network with passwords."
