Former city of Edmonton worker accessed info of 5,000 personnel in 2021 data breach
In a news release, Daryl Croft, branch manager of open city and technology , said the employee downloaded documents from city-owned computers onto a personal cloud-based account in May 2021.
“Given the size of the breach, the city hired an outside forensic IT consulting firm, which was able to access the cloud account and identify more than 157,000 records that could belong to the city,” Croft said. “We have no reason to believe the records were shared beyond the employee, who is no longer employed by the City of Edmonton.”The records are from 2018 to 2020. The types of files downloaded include, but aren’t limited to, employee discipline reports, settlement agreements, union seniority and retirees lists, and Alberta human rights complaints.
