GoKawiilBreach of Denmark's CPR database exposes records of 8 million people
Denmark's government confirmed that hackers stole most of the contents of its Central Person Register, a database holding identity data on roughly 11 million people including the deceased and those living abroad. Minister Christina Egelund called it a "serious incident," saying attackers gained access by abusing a private Danish company's legitimate credentials to query the system. The breach occurred in September but wasn't discovered until October 2, and authorities have not named a suspect.
