Full timeline through 2026

2026 — up to ~1 PB claimed (ShinyHunters; strategic exfiltration, non-ransomware)

Unverified claim — treat actor counts cautiously. Telus Digital confirmed a major cybersecurity incident in March 2026 after ShinyHunters claimed to have stolen nearly 1 petabyte (700–1000 TB) of customer and internal data from cloud environments—framed in press as a targeted intrusion focused on long-horizon data theft rather than ransomware deployment (non-ransomware, “trusted behavior” / insider-like abuse of cloud access in some analyses). Attackers reportedly reused Google Cloud Platform credentials exposed via the broader Salesloft Drift supply-chain inciden Exposed categories include Customer and internal enterprise data (details emerging); call/support records; code and operational datasets per threat actor and press claims. No attested victim count is published for this row yet. See the telus-digital 2026 record and canonical BreachHistory entry.
