(Reuters) - Australia's Eagers Automotive said on Friday a cyber incident impacting some of its IT systems is affecting the company's ability to finalise transactions for certain new vehicles, which have been sold and ready for delivery.
Corporate Australia has seen an alarming rise in cyber security breaches since last year, even prompting the country's government to reform cyber security rules. Australia set up an agency in February this year to oversee government investment and help coordinate responses to hacker attacks.
