21 Aug 2025 Kwong's Art Jewellery Trading Company Limited, My Jewelry Management LimitedJewellery companies: data of around 79,400 people stolen – enforcement notices Order
At Kwong's Art Jewellery Trading Company Limited and its retail subsidiary My Jewelry Management Limited, which run their IT systems jointly, an attacker (reported in November 2024) obtained the credentials of an administrator account by brute force, exfiltrated the database and deleted it; around 79,400 individuals were affected, including customers and current and former employees. In its report published on 21 August 2025 the PCPD (Privacy Commissioner for Personal Data, Hong Kong's data protection authority) found breaches of DPP 4(1), among other things because the account of a departed employee had not been deleted in time, server operating systems were outdated and security policies and security assessments were lacking. Both companies were served enforcement notices to remedy the deficiencies and prevent further contraventions.
Delete the accounts of departing staff immediately, keep servers up to date and protect administrator access against brute-force attacks.
