Russian America

In 2017, a massive data leak occurred in Russian America, exposing 182,717 records. The leak originated from a government database containing personal information of individuals within Russia.


The leaked data included names, addresses, phone numbers, email addresses, and passport details. The information was obtained from a variety of sources, including government agencies, banks, and credit bureaus.


The leak was discovered by a security researcher who was able to access the database through an unsecured SQL query. The researcher subsequently alerted the Russian government to the breach, and the database was secured.


The Russian America leak is one of the largest data breaches in history, and it has raised concerns about the security of personal data in the digital age.
