Denmark's Central Person Register (CPR) has announced extensive unauthorized access to citizens' CPR data, the national registry holding personal identity numbers. The agency published a news notice about the incident, which security observers are flagging as a significant data breach involving sensitive personal information. The scale of exposure and the number of affected citizens have not been detailed in the notice.
Why now: A breach of Denmark's core national identity registry threatens the personal data of potentially all citizens, raising privacy and security concerns.
