Asos warns customer data may be compromised after ‘unauthorised’ app access

·The Guardian·Impact 3/5 · Notable

Asos has warned that customer data may be at risk after its app systems were accessed by an unidentified third party. This unauthorized access could potentially compromise basic personal information, such as names and contact details, of its customers. The news has led to a significant decline in Asos's shares, falling 11% in value. This drop in stock price is likely to be a concern for investors, as it may indicate a loss of trust in the company's ability to protect customer data.
