LONDON: Around 10 million people had their data stolen in a cyberattack on London´s public transport operator in 2024, making it one of Britain´s largest breaches, the BBC reported on Friday.
Transport for London said it had sent an email to more than seven million customers in September 2024 “to inform them about the incident and that some customer data may have been taken”.
“These were the customers we had email addresses for based on the data which was understood to have been taken,” TfL said in a statement on Friday.
The BBC said it had concluded 10 million were affected after reviewing data from an anonymous source who had obtained a copy of the full TfL database.
