Radiant, a cybercriminal group, hacked the UK-based Kido nursery chain and posted profiles of ten children online while threatening to release many more unless paid. The group's leak site claims sensitive data on over 8,000 children and their families, including names, dates of birth, birthplaces, addresses, phone numbers, accident and safeguarding reports, and billing.
