LVMH Hit by Cyberattack – Here’s Why You Need Dark Web Monitoring

15th July 2025 | Blogs

Luxury brand giant LVMH (Louis Vuitton Moët Hennessy) has just suffered its third cyberattack in less than a year. This time, it’s even more serious, data’s been stolen, and it’s already being traded on the dark web. Now you might be thinking, “That’s a billion-dollar company, I’m just a small or mid-sized business. Why would hackers bother with me?”

Well, that’s the scary bit. They do. And they are. Every. Single. Day.


What actually happened?

A cybercrime group called Black Basta breached LVMH’s network and allegedly stole gigabytes of sensitive data; employee files, passport scans, NDAs, and more. Within days, it started showing up on the dark web. The underworld of the internet where stolen data is bought, sold, or leaked for profit. This isn’t just a luxury fashion problem. It’s a business-wide reality.


Why does this matter to your business?

Because if it can happen to them, it can happen to you. Cybercriminals don’t care whether you sell handbags or handle toner orders. What they care about is data. And guess what? Your employee emails, passwords, and business info are just as valuable to them. And most businesses don’t even realise their data has been compromised until it’s too late. That’s why we’ve been working behind the scenes on something big.


Dark Web Monitoring by Workflo

We’re excited (and a little nervous, given how real the threat is) to launch our Dark Web Monitoring service. Think of it as your cyber early warning system. It constantly scans the dark web for signs that your email addresses, passwords, or company data have been stolen or leaked. If it spots anything suspicious – you’ll know immediately. That gives you a chance to act before the damage is done.

Here’s what it means for you:

  • Immediate alerts if your company credentials show up online

  • Protection against impersonation and fraud

  • Peace of mind knowing someones got your back

  • A stronger, smarter cybersecurity posture without the jargon


What Would You Do If This Was Your Business?

Imagine waking up to find your client data, employee logins or supplier contracts floating around the dark web... how would you explain that to your customers or your team? The truth is, reacting after a breach isn’t enough anymore. You need to be proactive. That’s where we come in.
