International Kiteboarding Organization data breach

What happened

In November 2025, the International Kiteboarding Organization suffered a data breach that exposed 340k user records. The data was subsequently listed for sale on a hacking forum and included email addresses, names, usernames and in many cases, the user's city and country.

What data leaked

• Email addresses
• Geographic locations
• Names
• Usernames

What to do if you had an account

1. Turn on two-step sign-in. Enable two-factor authentication where the service offers it, preferably with an authenticator app or a passkey. A leaked password alone is then not enough to get in.
2. Expect targeted phishing. Leaked contact details are used to write convincing fake messages that mention the breached company or your real name. Do not click links in unexpected emails or texts about this account; go to the site by typing its address.
