Imagine the names, job functions, email addresses and phone numbers of police officers, DAs, and even critical key witnesses being hacked and leaked to the public. This isn’t the opening to some spy novel – it’s what actually happened when the Dutch Law Enforcement suffered a serious data breach in September of this year. Initially reported as a breach ‘only’ involving personal data of 65.000 law enforcement employees, it later became clear that much more data was leaked - and not just data from law enforcement personnel. In this Deep Dive, host Lieuwe Jan Koning, Security Expert Jeroen Scheerder and Field CTO Rob Maas take an in-depth look at how this breach unfolded, the poor security track record of the software that was used and what the Dutch Law Enforcement could’ve done better when it comes to handling the publicity of a data breach. 👉Best way to support the channel: give us a like! 🎧 Available on all major podcast platforms. ► YOUTUBE: https://youtube.com/@ThreatTalks ► SPOTIFY: https://open.spotify.com/show/1SXUyUEndOeKYREvlAeD7E ► APPLE: https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/threat-talks-your-gateway-to-cybersecurity-insights/id1725776520 👕 Receive your Threat Talks T-shirt 👕 https://threat-talks.com/prevent-pay-or-insure/ 🗺️ Explore the Hack's Route in Detail 🗺️ https://on2it.s3.us-east-1.amazonaws.com/Threat-Talks-Prevent-Pay-or-Insure.pdf 🕵️ Threat Talks is a collaboration between ON2IT and AMS-IX
