Online throws Britain's Dixons Carphone a lockdown lifeline
Dixons Carphone said that strong online sales were making up for around two-thirds of the store sales lost in Britain's coronavirus lockdown on Wednesday, lifting its shares 15%. The electrical goods retailer said it planned for "zero contact" shops once restrictions ease and chief executive Alex Baldock said that the shift Dixons had seen to online shopping did not mean that outlets would be permanently closed. Dixons shares jumped 15% to 79 pence at 0814 GMT, which Liberum analysts said reflected an improved position from the retailer's last update at the end of March.

Dixons Carphone fined for systemic failures that led to cyber attack - ICO
Britain's Information Commissioner's Office (ICO) said in a statement https://ico.org.uk/about-the-ico/news-and-events/news-and-blogs/2020/01/nationwide-retailer-fined-half-a-million-pounds-for-failing-to-secure-information on Thursday that its investigation found that an attacker installed malware on 5,390 cash registers at Dixons Travel stores and DSG's Currys PC World between July 2017 and April 2018, collecting personal data.

In July 2018, the London-based company bumped up the estimate of records that may have been accessed to about 10 million from an earlier estimate of 1.2 million in the 2017 cyber attack.
