The breach, which utilized "automated means," compromised sensitive financial information for over 128,000 customers across multiple states, highlighting the ongoing threat to e-commerce platforms.
Online fashion giant **Revolve** has disclosed a cybersecurity incident that led to the compromise of customer payment card information. In an 8-K report filed with the **Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC)**, the company confirmed that cybercriminals accessed multiple internal systems.

While **Revolve** did not specify the exact timeline of the attack, it affirmed that federal law enforcement agencies have been notified. A cybersecurity firm has also been engaged to spearhead recovery efforts. The company stated that the incident did not cause operational disruptions and is not expected to have a material financial impact.
