The company says the files may contain 'some employee information,' calling it a 'deeply distressing' situation.

RICHMOND, B.C. — Retailer London Drugs says cybercriminals who stole files from its corporate head office last month have released some of the data after it refused to pay a ransom.

London Drugs was responding to a social media post by B.C.-based cybersecurity analyst Brett Callow that said hacking group Lockbit had released what it claimed was the company's data. It says London Drugs is notifying employees whose personal information may be affected and offering them credit monitoring and identity theft protection services.
