Peace Officers Research Association of California says its data server was breached earlier this month. The hackers stole application files of retired associate members going back to 2008. The organization started receiving reports last week that members’ credit cards were showing transactions in foreign countries. PORAC represents more than 890 associations and over 62,000 local, state and federal public safety personnel. The association is following up with a letters that will be mailed out today to members of California’s public safety community. It’s not known if other members were affected by the breach.
