“According to representatives of said agencies, after conducting their respective investigations and vulnerability tests, the NBI, CSC, and BIR have confirmed that there were no breaches on their part and will release their respective statements to the public,” Naga said. Leaked data include documents of academic and personal history such as birth certificates, educational record transcripts, diplomas, tax filing records, passports and police identification cards.“To further investigate this matter, we issued an order to conduct an onsite investigation on the concerned data processing system of PNP on 24 April 2023 headed by the Complaints and Investigation Division of this Commission,” Naga said.
“The recent allegations of a data breach involving law enforcement agencies in the country should serve as a reminder that no organization, not even the government, is immune to the threat of cyberattacks and that we should remain in constant vigilance in protecting personal data,” Naga said.
