PENSKE AUTOMOTIVE GROUP, INC.Jun 2024
$2.5M
Total reported cost
Total incident cost
Penske's own network held; what went dark was CDK Global, the dealer management software running its Premier Truck Group back office, hit by ransomware that reporting ties to the BlackSuit group. When one vendor is the operating system for roughly 15,000 dealerships, its outage is your outage, and Premier Truck spent the shutdown selling heavy trucks on paper. Concentration is not a convenience here: it is a single point of failure with a logo.
