    A second cyber incident at data provider CDK Global, whose software is
    used at 15,000 auto dealers, continued to slow operations to a near-
    standstill Thursday at US and Canada dealerships, the company said in a
    message sent to dealers.

    On Wednesday, CDK spokesperson Lisa Finney said in a statement shared with
    CNN: "We are actively investigating a cyber incident. Out of an abundance
    of caution and concern for our customers, we have shut down most of our
    systems and are working diligently to get everything up and running as
    quickly as possible."

    Later that day the company announced that most of the critical computer
    systems were back online. But Thursday morning, the company sent
    dealerships another message indicating things had a taken a turn for the
    worse.
