Harrods has warned customers that personal data including names and contact details was stolen from a third-party provider's system. The luxury London department store emphasized that passwords and payment information weren't compromised in what the provider called an "isolated incident."

This breach is separate from earlier cyberattacks targeting Harrods this year. In May, the store restricted internet access as a precaution after attempted break-ins. Four people were arrested in July for suspected involvement in cyber-attacks against Harrods, Marks & Spencer, and the Co-op.

Harrods has notified authorities and affected customers, working with the third-party provider to address the security incident.
