Cyberattack Halts Intoxalock Services, Leaves Thousands Stranded: A major provider of vehicle breathalyzer systems, Intoxalock, is grappling with a cyberattack that has disrupted services for thousands of drivers across forty-six states. The attack, which occurred on March fourteenth, has prevented the company from performing routine calibrations, leaving drivers unable to start their cars. The company, which serves around one hundred fifty thousand drivers a year, has shut down key systems as a safety measure, leading to widespread service disruptions. Drivers are expressing frustration online and in local news, with reports of cars that wont start after missing calibrations and people left without rides. Auto shops are piling up with affected vehicles, and the impact is particularly hard for those relying on these devices for court orders or safety programs. Intoxalock has not revealed the attacks nature or a recovery timeline, but they are working to restore operations and minimize the hassle for everyone involved.
