Polar, makers of some of the best heart rate monitors and best running watches, experienced a cybersecurity attack this week. On 11 October, Polar posted a statement on the “updates” section of its website, informing users and customers that it was subject to ‘various levels of disruption’, and has shut down the login and signup pages as a result.
If you’re a Polar user, you might be worried your sensitive health data is at risk, but speaking to TechRadar, Polar says your data ‘has not been compromised’.
