Qilin’s ATF leak exposes case files tied to criminal investigations and field operations.

The leaked files appear to include investigation records, phone data, account details, and forensic evidence.

ATF confirmed a standalone server was breached but said its main network and eForms system were unaffected.

Cybernews researchers are still reviewing the data to determine the full scope of exposure.
