Thousands of records have been compromised after the recruitment database of the United Nation’s aviation agency was breached.
The Canada-based International Civil Aviation Organization (ICAO) admitted that it was investigating a potential breach yesterday but has now released some details.
The scale of this breach, though, is tiny compared to some of the cyberattacks that have hit private companies. In the last year alone, Comcast, Dell, and Dropbox have had to hold their hands up and admit hackers have accessed their data.
