Cyberattack on the National Police Sports Federation: licensed members' data compromised
A judicial investigation is underway following a computer intrusion targeting the National Police Sports Federation (FSPN). The investigations concern "attacks on an automated data system against the host" of this federation, according to a statement published by the organisation.
In its declaration, the FSPN believes that the information stolen could cover several years of sports memberships. The organisation has urged its members to remain vigilant against fraudulent emails and phishing attempts that may follow this data leak.
The specialist website FrenchBreaches, which revealed the matter, indicates that approximately "180,000 medical certificates" could be affected by this compromise. The same media adds that potentially exposed data would also include names, first names and email addresses.
FrenchBreaches is relying on "several files shared by the cybercriminal behind the distribution", while clarifying that "the exact extent of the compromise" remains to be confirmed.
