Internet giant Yahoo came under fresh pressure yesterday to reveal when it knew about the world's biggest cyber attack.

Eight million email accounts in Britain, including those of BT Broadband and Sky customers, may have been compromised by the breach which was said to have affected 500million worldwide.

Embattled Yahoo boss Marissa Mayer is facing claims she knew the firm was investigating a serious data breach in July, but withheld the information from investors and regulators.

The cyber attack came to light while the company was investigating a separate claim by a hacker, known as Peace, that 200 million users' details had been stolen during the summer.
