Massive Data Breach Exposes Billions of Records

Understanding the Breach
In a significant data breach, National Public Data (NPD), a data broker based in Coral Springs, Florida, has confirmed that billions of sensitive personal records were stolen and leaked online. These records include sensitive details such as names, Social Security numbers, and address histories of individuals from the United States, UK, and Canada. The breach has raised serious concerns as this data is now readily accessible on the dark web, a part of the internet often used for illicit activities.
