Bol and de Bijenkorf warn customers of data leak at CEVA Logistics
A potential data leak at CEVA Logistics has led to warnings from Bol and de Bijenkorf to their customers.
Bol and de Bijenkorf have warned customers about a potential data leak resulting from a cyberattack on their logistics partner CEVA Logistics. The online retailers indicated in an email that personal data of customers may have been stolen during this incident.
According to the information, the operations of CEVA Logistics are essential for the distribution of orders from Bol and de Bijenkorf. Customers are being alerted to possible delays or cancellations of their orders.
It has not yet been confirmed whether the cyberattack actually affected the data of customers from both retailers. There is also uncertainty as to whether the data leak only concerns CEVA Logistics or if other companies are involved as well.
CEVA Logistics is viewed as one of the largest logistics providers in the world. Several Dutch retail companies have outsourced their distribution processes to this company, which amplifies the impact of the security incident.
