Data Breach Notifications

This repository serves as a collection of data breach notifications. It is not meant to analyse the notifications themselves but merely serve as an archive.

Contributing

You are very welcome to contribute to this project via a pull request. To ensure data remains in a consistent format and can be easily processed, it must be presented in the following format:

  1. Create a new folder with the format YYYY-mm-dd-organisation where YYYY-mm-dd is the date of notification in ISO 8601 format and organisation is the lowercase name of the company affected. For example, 2020-05-21-easyjet.

  2. Each folder should contain a minimum of two files:

    • notification.txt: a plain text file containing just the notification message itself. All surrounding images, metadata, etc. should be removed.

    • capture.[pdf|jpg]: a screen capture of the notification e-mail including images. You should ensure you have stripped any personally identifiable information.

    • (optionally) email.eml: a copy of the notifiation e-mail in eml format, including headers. You should ensure you have stripped any personally identifiable information by find and replace your name with REDACTED, your e-mail with redacted@redacted.com, and any special links, i.e. login

    • And feel free to add anything else of relevance to the breach, i.e. post-notification updates via the organisations website.
