The PNLD data breach (identified 26 July 2026) exposed names, employer details and work email addresses for police officers, police staff, criminal justice professionals, government partners and some Ask the Police users; the compromised contact data was published on the dark web, PNLD reports no evidence of password or credential access, and the organisation has informed the ICO and is working with the NCA and cybersecurity specialists while the investigation continues.
