"UK Gun Owners May Be Targeted After Rifle Association Breach"

The National Smallbore Rifle Association has recently warned members of possible follow-on fraud and cybercrime after its IT systems were breached.  The association is working with the UK's South East Regional Organised Cybercrime Unit (SEROCU) to investigate the incident.  The association noted that all their IT systems are fully operational, no funds have been lost, and they will communicate fully with their members after the police investigation.  The company confirmed that this attack had not affected the membership portal, which remains secure.  The cyberattack targeted legacy servers that contained working documents, not a full database.  At this time, the company noted that it cannot say exactly who this affects as they have no access to the servers.
