A ransomware attack against San Francisco’s Bay Area Rapid Transit exposed highly sensitive and personal data after a threat group leaked the records.

According to screenshots sent to Cybersecurity Dive, the allegedly stolen data consists of a long list of documents with names like "master employee list," "background disposition" reports, crime lab reports, police reports, a "suspected child abuse report," a controlled substances examination report for heroin, and other highly sensitive and private information.
