UBS reports data leak after cyber attack on provider, client data unaffected
ZURICH (Reuters) -Swiss bank UBS on Wednesday said it had suffered a data leak due to a cyber attack against one of its providers, but that no client data was affected. Swiss newspaper Le Temps said that files containing details of tens of thousands of UBS employees had been stolen from business service company Chain IQ. "A cyber-attack at an external supplier has led to information about UBS and several other companies being stolen. No client data has been affected," UBS said. "As soon as UBS became aware of the incident, it took swift and decisive action to avoid any impact on its operations." Chain IQ said it and 19 other companies had been the target of a cyber-attack resulting in a data leak that was published online on the darknet. Steps and countermeasures were promptly taken and the situation is contained, it said in a statement. Chain IQ also said it could not provide any information on potential ransom demands or interactions with the attackers for security and investigative reasons. Le Temps reported that Swiss private bank Pictet had also been affected by the cyber attack. Pictet did not immediately reply to a request for comment.

Style Edit: Hermès wowed at Watches and Wonders 2025 with playful, intricate timepieces – reimagining time with a suspended complication, and delving into high jewellery
If there is one overarching theme in Hermès' releases for Watches and Wonders 2025, it is the ability to play with time. The brand reintroduced one of its signature complications, Le Temps Suspendu (Suspended Time), to two of its mainstay collections. At the push of a button, time is stopped and all hands of the watch assume a fixed position near the 12 o'clock marker – hour hand at 11:59 and minute hand at 12:01. It's a configuration that otherwise won't be seen on a watch, and yet even as the watch remains fixed and the wearer transfixed, time marches on within the movement. Hermès Arceau Le Temps Suspendu. Photo: Handout This year, Hermès offers the complication on two different models. The Arceau Le Temps Suspendu shows the complication as described, while also hiding the retrograde date hand when the complication is engaged – so not only is the time forgotten, but the day is also left to your imagination. The 42mm piece presents in three varieties – a white gold case with a brun désert (desert brown) or rouge sellier (saddle red) dial, or a rose gold case with a sunburst blue dial. The semi-openworked dials and exhibition caseback show the Hermès H1837 movement inside. Advertisement Hermès Cut Le Temps Suspendu. Photo: Handout For those looking for a sportier version of the complication, the Hermès Cut Le Temps Suspendu is a 39mm piece in rose gold with either an opaline or red-tinted dial, or combines a white dial with a gem-set bezel. This version of the Cut shows time suspended by fixing the sub-seconds dial at 12 o'clock. The dial itself is also 'cut' to show where the hands are stopped when time is suspended – there are no minutes when the hands reach that position. Hermès Maillon Libre. Photo: Handout Hermès' newest collection, Maillon Libre, delves into high jewellery watches, and in particular their tendency to conceal the checking of time. The discreet, two-hand, time-only, gem-set piece comes in rose or white gold, and as either a discreet bracelet wristwatch or a brooch. The latter – which can be worn on the cuff or on the neck via a cordlet and clochette – shows the watch adorned with a terracotta tourmaline in the rose gold version, and an indicolite tourmaline in white gold. Hermès Arceau Rocabar de Rire. Photo: Handout The most playful watch of Hermès' releases this year, however, has to be the Arceau Rocabar de Rire. Here, the dial combines engraving and hand-painting techniques to evoke Hermès' signature Rocabar marquetry and equestrian motifs, while activating the pusher at 9 o'clock makes the horse stick out its tongue.

French Word of the Day: Guili-guili
Why do I need to know guili-guili? Because this is a good word to know if you spend time around small children. What does it mean? Guili-guili - roughly pronounced ghil-ee-ghil-ee - translates as 'tickle tickle'. You might hear a parent or caregiver say this when tickling a small child, but otherwise, it's probably not a term adults hear too often. To turn it into a verb, you would say faire guili-guili à quelqu'un . However, there are a few other ways to talk about tickling in French. The official verb is chatouiller (to tickle). A person who is ticklish would be chatouilleux (or chatouilleuse ). You might also hear the verb titiller to mean 'tickle', but this also means 'to titillate' and it is less commonly used to mean 'tickle'. If it is used as 'tickle', you might hear it in a sentence like L'excellent sandwich vous titillera les papilles (the excellent sandwich will tickle your taste buds). Advertisement As for the origins of guili-guili , linguists believe it arose as a simple onomatopoeia for the act of tickling. However, the Swiss French newspaper Le Temps wrote that it could come from the Hebrew word guili , which means 'my joy'. Use it like this Fais pas guili guili au chat ! Ils n'aiment pas qu'on leur touche le ventre. - Don't tickle the cat. They don't like it when we touch their stomachs. Les guili-guili font rire a tout le monde. - Tickles make everyone laugh.
