# Aéro-Club de l'AIA

Data breach — High

A database attributed to Aéro-Club de l'AIA (Clermont-Ferrand), an aeronautical club tied to a French Air Force industrial workshop, was published for free on a cybercriminal forum on September 24, 2026, by a user under the pseudonym "Sophia". The sample concerns roughly 196 current and former members and includes identity, contact details (address, phone, email), dates of birth, login credentials and passwords, plus data tied to pilot licenses (PPL, LAPL, CPL), qualifications, and a flight/booking history spanning 2010-2019. Some profiles include professional addresses linked to Defense-related services.

Cross-referencing the Defense-linked professional addresses with other leaks could facilitate targeted social engineering attempts against this personnel.

| Fact | Value |

| Disclosed on | September 24, 2026 |

## Exposed data

- Full name
- Email address
- Phone number
- Postal address
- Date of birth
- Customer ID
- Employment data
- Connection data (IP, logs)
- Password (hashed)
- Other personal data

## What you can do

- Change that password — and everywhere you reused it. That is how a leak spreads to your other accounts.
- Turn on two-factor authentication on the affected accounts: a stolen password is then no longer enough.
- Expect phishing attempts quoting your name and this company. A message that knows your details is not legitimate for that reason.
- You can ask the organisation exactly what was exposed about you (right of access), and complain to the DPA if no answer comes within a month.
