Belgian data leaks hit 47 entities; CCB confirms dark web findings

A joint investigation by L'Echo and Fox&Fish Cyberdefense identified at least 47 Belgian companies and institutions affected by data leaks since early 2026, including municipalities, hospitals, and travel agencies. The Centre for Cybersecurity Belgium (CCB) corroborates the count, which exceeds its own earlier tally of 40. The breach scope suggests systemic vulnerabilities in Belgian data protection, with potential for targeted fraud or espionage.
