Hobbs and Whistles owner hit by data breach

Original: Owner of fashion brands Hobbs and Whistles joins autumn pwned collection

TFG London, the owner of fashion brands Hobbs, Whistles and Coast, has reportedly been added to what security outlets are calling the autumn 'pwned' collection, a roundup of organisations affected by data breaches. The item, reported by The Register, gives no further detail on how many customers may be affected or what data was exposed. It is the latest in a seasonal series of breach disclosures drawing attention to retailers' cybersecurity.

Why now: Retail data breaches affect large numbers of shoppers, so new additions to the breach roundup attract attention.
