It is a new blow to the work of France, and those who benefit from their follow -up. The organization responsible for managing the return to employment and unemployment benefits of millions of French announces that it has been the victim of a data leak, and more particularly of an “act of malicious cybernetic.”
In a letter transmitted to the people in question, France’s work indicates that “unauthorized” access to personal data on July 12, 2025 was discovered: “The employment portal was closed immediately.
“According to the information provided by the ANSSI (the National Agency for the Safety of Information Systems, Editor’s Note), internal teams could quickly identify the service in question. This is the Kairos application that allows training organizations to act on monitoring the training of employment applicants,” the organization specifies.
340,000 employment applicants in question
Among the available data, we find the names, names, postal and electronic addresses, telephone numbers, the work of France and the state identifier (irradiated or registered).
The organization specifies that bank data and passwords are not worried: “However, we recommend that you remain attentive to Phishing’s risks,” said the agency’s press release.
With Tech & Co, France Work confirms that this pirateo refers to at least 340,000 employment applicants. The organization specifies having filed a complaint and warned of the Cnil, the gendarme of personal data, calmly.
“Our Research has allowed a complete understanding of the incident, which allows the reactivation of interested services scheduled for Thursday (…) IT teams have accelerated the implementation of a double factor authentication system to access this portal, the implementation initially scheduled for next October, “adds France’s work.
This piracy occurs a little more than a year after a large large -scale cyber attack, which intervened with a partner in France in the spring of 2024. At that time, data from more than 40 million registered were recovered.
Given this new flight, however, you must be careful with the emails or letters you could receive. France’s work will never ask for the number of his bank card. In case of doubt, do not hesitate to communicate with your advisor.
