Cybersecurity: Threats and DefencesBackground
Etos is a Dutch drugstore chain and digital health platform. Philips workers founded the business, which became Independent of Philips before joining the Ahold group. It now sits within Ahold Delhaize.
The combination of shops and a digital health platform gives Etos both a physical retail presence and an online service role. That mix distinguishes it from a shop-only drugstore chain and makes its website part of the brand’s normal customer access. Etos operates in the Netherlands.
