UK Construction Firms Hemorrhage Log-Ins to Dark Web

Over 600,000 breached corporate log-ins belonging to staff at the UK’s leading construction, architecture and property firms are available for sale on the dark web, according to RepKnight.

The cyber intelligence firm used its BreachAlert dark web monitoring tool to locate the credentials. Over 450,000 were from construction firms, 110,00 were from architecture practices and just over 47,000 were linked to property developer businesses.

A spokesperson confirmed to Infosecurity that most of these likely found their way onto the dark web via breaches of third-party sites employees had signed up to using their corporate email.
