Harrods Is Dealing With A Cyberattack

The uber famous department store Harrods is apparently facing some sort of cyberattack. Here’s what the BBC said:

A statement from Harrods read: “We recently experienced attempts to gain unauthorised access to some of our systems.

“Our seasoned IT security team immediately took proactive steps to keep systems safe and as a result we have restricted internet access at our sites today.

“Currently all sites including our Knightsbridge store, H beauty stores and airport stores remain open to welcome customers. Customers can also continue to shop via harrods.com.

“We are not asking our customers to do anything differently at this point and we will continue to provide updates as necessary.”

So it sounds like this is going to be another story worth watching. I say that because new developments will likely come to light in the coming hours and days.
