According to company web site report, a deta brench by cyber attack on relative two subsdiary section of internet cafe and fitness club, that occurred from January 2015 to January 2025, total number was 7,290,087. (Source:Aoki Holdings)^{[citation needed]}

Given how small and trivial some of these leaks are compared to others, I think we need to trim the list to leaks where at least 100,000 people or records were affected, at least as a starting point. — Masem (t) 13:34, 17 October 2024 (UTC)

The problem is that leak size is not the same as link damage: the Mermaids breach is a good example of how only a very small number of people <1000 were part of a very notable breach https://www.digitalhealth.net/2021/07/mermaids-fined-ico-data-protection-breach/ Joe (talk) 15:11, 17 October 2024 (UTC)

I _do_ think that there is milage in merging at least some of: this article; https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_cyberattacks, https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_phishing_incidents, and https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_security_hacking_incidents - having all four lists seems like overkill.

If we trim this page, it seems like it might make sense to spin out content by country for breaches involving governments and by sector for the companies. McYeee (talk) 20:39, 4 November 2024 (UTC)

For the list of governmental breaches there needs to be a complete change in the formatting. It's a incredibly hard to use. It should probably be by year or by country and putting ? in boxes is not appropriate. I would fix it but it seems as if someone is in the middle of working on the list and I don't wanna mess them up. Just wanted to bring it to attention.
