The Police Service of Northern Ireland (PSNI) and Ireland’s An Garda Síochána are probing a series of data breaches at several charities working with vulnerable individuals, including victims child sexual abuse, after their data was compromised in a cyber attack on an IT supplier.
The supplier, Derry-Londonderry-based Evide, is a data management services firm specialising in third-sector organisations. Its Impact Tracker platform is used by charities across in Ireland and the UK to manage campaign data and outcomes.
