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