Tata Electronics has confirmed a cybersecurity incident after ransomware group World Leaks published over 200,000 files allegedly stolen from its systems, including sensitive documents linked to Apple and Tesla. The cache reportedly exceeds 630 GB and contains emails, event logs, employee passport copies, product specifications, and component records. The company stated it detected the breach several weeks ago, activated response protocols, and confirmed no impact on ongoing operations. Apple is investigating the matter, while Tesla has not commented. Files reference Apple iPhone components and Tesla’s Project Highland and Model Y parts. This incident highlights growing supply chain vulnerabilities in global electronics manufacturing and raises concerns about intellectual property protection for major clients like Apple, which relies heavily on Tata for iPhone production in India.
