CDK Tells Car Dealers Their Systems Likely Offline Several Days.

Auto retailers in the US are facing several days of service disruption following a cyberattack on CDK Global, a software provider used by thousands of dealers. CDK informed customers of the incident and shut down most of its systems, leaving dealers unable to complete transactions, access customer records, or schedule appointments. The outage also affected dealerships in Canada, forcing them to resort to pen and paper for deals. CDK has not provided a timeline for when its systems will be restored. [Extracted from the article]
