0 organizations, 0 confirmed incidents.

Defence covers government contractors and subcontractors supplying military, aerospace or security equipment and services, plus the agencies that buy from them. These organizations typically hold employee and clearance-holder personal data alongside export-controlled technical information rather than large consumer databases. A US Department of Defense contractor handling covered defense information must rapidly report a cyber incident to the DoD within 72 hours of discovery under DFARS 252.204-7012; elsewhere in the sector, an incident is reported under the general data-breach notification statute covering the individuals whose personal data was exposed.

No confirmed incidents recorded for this sector yet.
