Dutch police arrest man over cyber breach at Ajax football club

Dutch police arrested a 35-year-old suspect accused of repeatedly and unlawfully accessing Ajax's computer systems after a March data breach in which an unpatched vulnerability was exploited. Ajax said the intrusion exposed several hundred email addresses and limited personal information, though a broadcaster suggested the impact could be much larger; the club has patched the vulnerability and launched an investigation. The report also highlights similar recent cyber incidents affecting other football clubs and associations.
