Personal details of 111 job applicants for a website developer position at Tate art galleries have been leaked online, exposing addresses, salaries, and referee contact information. The data, from applications submitted in October 2023, appeared on an unrelated website and includes current employers, education details, and lengthy application responses. Computer programmer Max Kohler, 29, discovered his information in the leak after a referee was contacted by a stranger who found the data dump. The breach exposed his salary, employer details, and referee information including personal emails and addresses. Tate says they're investigating but haven't identified any system breach. Data security incidents reported to the UK's Information Commissioner's Office have risen from 2,000 quarterly in 2022 to over 3,200 this year. **Source:** [The Guardian](https://www.theguardian.com/technology/2025/nov/14/personal-details-of-tate-galleries-job-applicants-leaked-online)
