TOKYO, March 1 (Reuters) - Japanese auto parts supplier GMB
Corp recorded unauthorised access to a server on Feb. 27, the
day after one of Toyota Motor Corp's  7203.T  suppliers reported
a cyberattack that halted one of the automaker's domestic
factories.
    GMB  7214.T  said in a statement that the unauthorised
access appeared to be ransomware and it is working with police
and other relevant companies to counter the issue.
    The company said it has not identified any leaks of
information so far from the unauthorised access.
