    Massive internal data leak alleged to expose cyberweapons and overseas target list

    In November 2025, cybersecurity company KnownSec was reported to have leaked a large number of internal files, which outsiders said included cyberattack tools, internal systems, and a list of about 80 overseas targets. The company said the leak originated from a cloud desktop zero-day intrusion in August 2023 and involved only employee contact lists, training documents, and some client names; it reported the matter to the competent authorities and apologized. The company issued a notice on the situation, and no regulatory penalty has been seen.
