Client communication letter from Ferrari,
Dear Ferrarista,
We regret to inform you of a cyber incident at Ferrari, where a threat actor was able to access a limited number of systems in our IT environment. As part of this incident, certain data relating to our clients was exposed including names, addresses, email addresses and telephone numbers. Your data may have been included as part of this incident. However, based on our investigation, no payment details and/or bank account numbers and/or other sensitive payment information, nor details of Ferrari cars owned or ordered have been stolen.
We were recently contacted by a threat actor with a ransom demand related to such customer data. As a policy, Ferrari will not be held to ransom as paying such demands continues to fund criminal activity and enables threat actors to perpetuate their attacks. Moreover, it does not fundamentally change the data exposure.
Upon receipt of the ransom demand, we started an investigation in collaboration with a leading global third-party forensics firm and have confirmed the data's authenticity. In addition, we informed the relevant authorities and are confident they will investigate to the full extent of the law.

We take the confidentiality of our clients seriously and understand the signific
