Coverage gap: no reports found on Master of Malt data breach
The supplied coverage does not contain any reporting on a Master of Malt customer data incident; instead it covers three unrelated cyberattacks.
What happened
None of the three sources provided relate to a whisky merchant called Master of Malt or a customer data spill involving that company.123
The supplied coverage instead reports on three separate and unrelated cybersecurity incidents: a cyberattack on Dyfed-Powys Police in the UK, a cyberattack on Polish healthcare data, and hacking group ShinyHunters expanding attacks on Oracle's PeopleSoft.123
What the coverage leaves out

- No source in this set confirms details of the specific event named in the working label, such as what customer data was involved, how it spilt, or Master of Malt's response.
