Danish Folk Party presses government for answers on massive CPR data leak
Dansk Folkeparti’s digitalisation spokesman Allan Feldt demanded clarification from the government after an anonymous hacker claimed responsibility for a historic leak of CPR numbers.
The party’s representatives on Christiansborg asked the prime minister’s office to explain whether a private individual or a foreign state was behind the breach. The Ministry of the Prime Minister cautioned that the prime minister’s remarks should not be interpreted as confirming a hybrid attack. The leak was first reported.
