Tata Technologies Ltd., a subsidiary of Tata Motors, has temporarily suspended some of its IT services following a ransomware attack that disrupted its network. The company, which specializes in automotive design, aerospace engineering, and R&D, employs over 11,000 people across 18 locations worldwide.

In a notification to India’s national stock exchange, Tata Technologies confirmed that the attack had impacted certain IT assets but assured that these have now been restored. The company emphasized that its client delivery services remained fully operational, and no customer operations were affected.

“As a precautionary measure, some IT services were suspended temporarily,” the company stated, “but has now been restored. Our Client delivery services have remained fully functional and unaffected throughout.”

A thorough investigation is underway in partnership with cybersecurity experts, though no major ransomware groups have claimed responsibility for the attack. It remains unclear whether any data was stolen. Historically, such attacks often involve data theft, which can jeopardize intellectual property and sensitive corporate information.
