Gedda's disappointment wasn't enough, at Ferrari the top management now has to deal with an attack on the computer system. And in a note, published by the web edition of Corriere della Sera, the Maranello house excludes any possibility of accepting a ransom request for data stolen from the servers.

In a note, Ferrari is categorical in this respect: «Ferrari SpA, an Italian company wholly owned by it, recently received a ransom request relating to some of its customers' contact details. Upon receiving this request, we immediately launched an investigation in collaboration with a world-leading cybersecurity company. Furthermore, we have informed the relevant authorities and are confident that they will do everything in their power to carry out the investigation. In line with its company policy, Ferrari will not accept any ransom requests as agreeing to such requests would fund criminal activity and allow threat actors to perpetuate their attacks.
Then, addressing customers, from Maranello they write: «In the belief that the best course of action is to inform our customers, we have notified our customers of the potential exposure of their data and the nature of the event. Ferrari treats the issue of the confidentiality of its customers very seriously and understands the importance of what happened. We have collaborated with experts to further strengthen our systems, of whose solidity we are confident », is written at the end of the note. "We can also confirm that the breach had no impact on our company's operations."
