In a development that will shock absolutely nobody acquainted with the realities of gun control, there was another security breach of firearm owner data maintained by a government agency. This one took place in France, and an online cybersecurity resource, NeuraCyb Cybersecurity, reported it involved that country’s firearm registration system. Known as the Système d’Information sur les Armes (SIA), all law-abiding French gun owners are required to register information with it that includes, among other things, the gun owner’s name, address, firearms (including serial numbers), and a complete transaction history of each gun.
Because the SIA can be accessed in a number of ways—the firearms industry can access it to report commercial activity while gun owners can also access it to report any changes to their personal collection of firearms—it may be susceptible to being hacked from multiple points.
According to the NeuraCyb article:
Authorities detected the unauthorized access in late March 2026. The intrusion did not involve a direct hack of the central SIA database. Instead attackers used a compromised account belonging to a legitimate company or professional user authorized to interact with the system. This allowed them to extract commercial files stored within that specific account.
An anonymous hacker who took credit for the breach claimed to have stolen information on roughly 60,000 firearms and has allegedly offered to sell the data on underground online forums. It is currently unknown how many law-abiding French gun owners might now have their personal information floating around the Internet and offered for sale to the highest (and shadiest) bidder, but some estimate it would be in the tens of thousands.
We know... And waiting for them to show up :)Beautiful holster, and I don't mean to derail this thread, but a couple weeks ago the French Firearms Registry was hacked and owner info downloaded.
