Tesco has confirmed it is making changes to its website's systems, following claims that it was putting users' personal data at risk due to inadequate password security.

Tesco confirmed the unspecified changes to its IT systems will be made in the near future, in a statement sent to V3 on Wednesday.

"We review our systems on a regular basis and look to update them if necessary" said a Tesco spokesman. "Following feedback from some of our customers, we will be updating the measures we already have in place in the coming weeks." The announcements comes after the Information Commissioner's Office (ICO) said it is planning on investigating the complaints levelled at Tesco, although the firm said it has not received any correspondence from the ICO.
