Clearview AI's law enforcement client data stolen in massive breach

Another bad look for the controversial startup

"Security is Clearview's top priority." Tor Eklund, attorney for Clearview AI.

Clearview AI, the dubious startup that's cozied up to the US law enforcement community with its facial recognition software, has managed to crap the metaphorical bed by allowing an intruder to exploit a security flaw and make off with its entire client list.

The exact nature and source of the breach remains unknown at this time. The company says it's patched the vulnerability and insists its servers were not accessed. But, based on the sensitive nature of its work, there's plenty of reason for concern.

Clearview says it works exclusively with law enforcement agencies. In fact, the company claims that not only does its clientele include hundreds of police stations, it also allegedly services the FBI and DHS.
