Updated Daycare camera product NurseryCam was hacked late last week with the person behind the digital break-in coming forward to tip us off.
News of NurseryCam s compromise was conveyed to the company by
The Register just after 5pm on Friday, leading the firm to tell parents: On 17:18 Friday 19th February 2021, it has come to our attention of a cyber incident detected in our NurseryCam system.
The BBC reported the news on Saturday, following NurseryCam s emailed notification to its parent users. Around 40 nurseries across the UK use the service, according to the Beeb.
