NDNA Response to the Kido Nurseries cyber attack

The early years sector and beyond has been shocked by the recent cyber attack on Kido international nurseries which has 18 settings in London alone.

 

Cyber criminals hacked into Kido’s system and started releasing details about their children on the dark web – threatening to release all 8,000 children’s details if they didn’t get paid.
