Due to constantly expanding third-party integration, an increase in linked devices, online banking, and the need for speedier transactions, the banking industry is by its very nature a highly interconnected industry. As there are too many things to secure and monitor, an increase in interconnectedness increases the likelihood of cyberattacks. The associated entities are likely connected to new entities, which may likewise pose a cybersecurity threat.
Third-party contractors frequently provide outsourcing banks with significant cybersecurity risks, including financial/reputational harm, regulatory issues, operational disruptions, etc. For example, Australian P&N Bank recently sent a letter to its customers informing them of a data breach that put their personal and sensitive account information at risk.

South America is most affected by COVID-19, with Brazil leading the way, followed by Ecuador, Chile, Peru, and Argentina. South America's government (SAM) has taken a number of steps to protect its citizens and stem the spread of COVID-19. South America is expected to have fewer export revenues as commodity prices fall and export volumes fall, particularly to China, Europe, and the United States, which are all significant trading partners. The manufacturing industry, especially automotive manufacturing, has been damaged by containment measures in various South American countries. Due to the pandemic, major automotive manufacturers have also temporarily halted manufacturing in the region as a cost-cutting move. Furthermore, the automobile disc brake industry has been significantly affected in 2020 due to a lack of raw materials and supply chain disruption.
The Automotive Brake System control module of a vehicle is meant to alert the driver with a warning light if the system fails. The module itself is rarely defective; instead, the sensors or the wiring to the sensors are frequently defective. The most typical cause of dysfunction is when the Automotive Brake System is contaminated with particles or metal shavings. There is no signal continuity when sensor wiring is destroyed. Brake fluid becomes contaminated in corrosive situations, and the hydraulic unit fails to function.
