The IT system had access to names, ranks, photos, vetting levels and pay numbers for officers and staff, the force said.

A Metropolitan Police IT system breach could do “incalculable damage” in the wrong hands, the Metropolitan Police Federation has said.

Rick Prior, Vice Chair of the Metropolitan Police Federation said: “Metropolitan Police officers are – as we speak – out on the streets of London undertaking some of the most difficult and dangerous roles imaginable to catch criminals and keep the public safe.
