Data Breach in Berlin: 5.7 TB of Information Leaked


A significant data breach in Germany has resulted in 5.7 TB of sensitive information being leaked to the dark web. This raises serious security concerns.
In Germany, a data breach from Berlin has leaked 5.7 TB of data, which is now freely available on the dark web.
This includes personnel data, personal contact information, individual employee files, information about employees with severe disabilities, countless confidential files, materials related to defense, construction documentation, notes and protocols detailing vulnerabilities and names, instructions for secure communication... and a whole lot more.
Now this affects even other cities, as materials with best practices were carefully stored there.
The most absurd part is that security experts are currently assessing the risk as moderate, because criminals would first have to sift through all this data if they wanted to cause any harm.
This is something you can't make up.
They apparently have never heard of AI.
