‘Significant Amount’ of Data Stolen in MoJ’s Legal Aid Hack
Legal Aid, an agency of the Ministry of Justice, has been hacked, with a “significant amount” of private data including criminal records being accessed. The hackers claim it accessed 2.1 million pieces of data dating back to 2010…
The MoJ confirmed that they were first aware of the hack on 23 April, though has since said the breach was “more extensive than originally understood”. Legal Aid Agency chief executive Jane Harbottle said the news “will be shocking and upsetting for people”, while the MoJ said:
“This data may have included contact details and addresses of applicants, their dates of birth, national ID numbers, criminal history, employment status and financial data such as contribution amounts, debts and payments. If you are in doubt about anyone you are communicating with online or over the phone you should verify their identity independently before providing any information to them.”
