COPFS has notified approximately 300 staff that their employment-related details (names, roles and work email addresses) may have been exposed after an unnamed supplier detected suspicious activity on August 5. COPFS says its systems were not breached, the data came from a government-organized online data maturity assessment managed by the supplier, and the supplier is investigating and has taken steps to secure systems; any connection to a recent Metabase zero-day exploit remains unconfirmed.
