Sports Direct 'hid data breach from staff'
A spokesman for Sports Direct would not be drawn on the details of the breach. New regulations coming from the EU will require companies to declare a data breach within 72 hours. "Unite general secretary Steve Turner told the BBC:"Sports Direct workers will be anxious to know what personal details have been hacked in this apparently serious data breach and why they weren't immediately informed about it by their employer. The union has contacted Sports Direct to clarify what happened in the breach, but urged staff to check their financial records, change passwords and report any suspicious activity. "Dr Jamie Greaves, chief executive at cybersecurity company ZoneFox told the BBC:"The way Sports Direct has handled their data breach last year is a perfect example of how not to deal with a cyber-attack.
