Hacked info from state security databases sold to rich clients: Milan prosecutors appeared on www.politico.eu by Antoaneta Roussi.
The confidential data, which was allegedly sold to clients or used to blackmail businessmen and politicians, including former Milan Mayor Letizia Moratti, went back to at least 2019 and continued up to March 2024, a court document seen by Reuters showed.
The Milan prosecutors allege the business intelligence agency tapped into three key databases: one gathering alerts over suspicious financial activities; one used by the national tax agency with citizens’ bank transactions, utility bills, income statements; and the police investigations’ database.
According to prosecutor documents, one of the suspects, Nunzio Samuele Calamucci, had a “huge amount of data to manage equal to at least 15 terabytes.”
The country’s anti-mafia prosecutor, Giovanni Melillo, told the press conference that the case had revealed “a gigantic and alarming market of confidential data.”
