Government

I'm pleased to welcome the first new government onto Have I Been Pwned for 2021, Portugal. The Portuguese CSIRT, CERT.PT [https://www.cncs.gov.pt/certpt/], now has full and free access to query their government domains across the entire scope of data in HIBP. This is now the 12th government onboarded to HIBP and I'm very happy to see the Portuguese join their counterparts in other corners of the world....

Following in the footsteps of many other national governments before them [https://www.troyhunt.com/tag/government/], I'm very happy to welcome the Canadian Centre for Cyber Security [https://cyber.gc.ca/en/] to Have I Been Pwned. The Canadian Centre for Cyber Security now has full and free access to query all Canadian federal government domains across both past and future breaches. Canada's inclusion in the service brings the total to 11 federal governments across North America, Europe and Aus...

Hot on the heels of onboarding the USA government to Have I Been Pwned last month [https://www.troyhunt.com/welcoming-the-usa-government-to-have-i-been-pwned/], I'm very happy to welcome another national government - Iceland! As of today, Iceland's National Computer Security Incident Response Team (CERT-IS [https://www.cert.is/]), now has access to the full gamut of their gov domains for both on-demand querying and ongoing monitoring. As with the USA and Iceland, I expect to continue onboarding...

Over the last 2 years I've been gradually welcoming various governments from around the world onto Have I Been Pwned (HIBP) so that they can have full and unfettered access to the list of email addresses on their domains impacted by data breaches. Today, I'm very happy to announce the expansion of this initiative to include the USA government by way of their US Cybersecurity and Infrastructure Security Agency (CISA). CISA now has the ability to query US government domains via API and receive not...

In a continued bid to make breach data available to the government departments around the world tasked with protecting their citizens, I'm very happy to welcome the first country onto Have I Been Pwned [https://haveibeenpwned.com/] for 2020 - Denmark! The Danish Centre for Cyber Security [https://fe-ddis.dk/cfcs/Pages/cfcs.aspx] (CFCS) joins the existing 7 governments who have free and unbridled API access to query and monitor their gov domains. As the year progresses, I'll keep onboarding add...

I recently had the pleasure of spending a few days in Switzerland, firstly in Geneva visiting (and speaking at [https://webcast.web.cern.ch/event/683/camera-slides]) CERN followed by a visit to the nation's capital, Bern. There I spent some time with a delegation of the National Cybersecurity Centre discussing the challenges they face and where HIBP can play a role. Continuing the march forward to provide governments with better access to their departments' data exposed in breaches [https://www....

Over the last couple of years, I've been increasingly providing governments with better access to their departments' data exposed in breaches [https://www.troyhunt.com/the-uk-and-australian-governments-are-now-monitoring-their-gov-domains-on-have-i-been-pwned/] by giving them free and unfettered API access to their domains. As I've been travelling around the world this year, I've been carving out time to spend with governments to better understand the infosec challenges they're facing and the r...

Over the last year and a bit I've been working to make more data in HIBP freely available to governments around the world [https://www.troyhunt.com/the-uk-and-australian-governments-are-now-monitoring-their-gov-domains-on-have-i-been-pwned/] that want to monitor their own exposure in data breaches. Like the rest of us, governments regularly rely on services that fall victim to attacks resulting in data being disclosed and just like the commercial organisations monitoring domains on HIBP, unders...

Early last year, I announced that I was making HIBP data on government domains for the UK and Australia freely accessible to them via searches of their respective TLDs [https://www.troyhunt.com/the-uk-and-australian-governments-are-now-monitoring-their-gov-domains-on-have-i-been-pwned/] . The Spanish government followed a few months later [https://www.troyhunt.com/welcoming-the-spanish-government-to-have-i-been-pwned/] with each getting unbridled access to search their own domains via an authent...

A couple of months ago, I shared news of on-boarding the UK and Australian governments to Have I Been Pwned [https://www.troyhunt.com/the-uk-and-australian-governments-are-now-monitoring-their-gov-domains-on-have-i-been-pwned/] (HIBP). As I explained at the time, I wanted to provide the folks there with easy access to their respective government domains which meant providing them with the facility to query at the TLD level - namely, .gov.uk and .gov.au - as well as across a handful of their oth...
