Beacon CRM Data Breach
Clinks is aware of the data breach affecting customers of Beacon CRM, including a number of voluntary sector organisations working in criminal justice. We recognise that this is a concerning situation and extend our support to all organisations and individuals affected.
HMPPS and the Ministry of Justice are aware of the issue and are working centrally with relevant statutory partners and agencies to understand the scale and implications of the breach. At this stage, organisations should follow their existing data protection and incident management procedures, including notifying their grant or contract manager and/or host organisation as required under contractual or data sharing agreements.
If your organisation has been affected, please contact support@clinks.org to let us know. We are keen to understand the scale of the impact across the criminal justice sector and to ensure affected organisations receive relevant central updates, guidance and communications from HMPPS, the Ministry of Justice and other appropriate bodies as the situation develops.
Clinks will continue to monitor the situation and provide further information to members when available.
