    Ireland's Employment Permits Portal taken offline after unauthorised activity; names, emails and roles may be exposed

    Ireland's Department of Enterprise, Tourism and Employment said on Oct 29 2026 that it found suspicious unauthorised activity on the Employment Permits Portal, and a security vulnerability during its first checks. It took the portal offline, removed access from suspected compromised administrator accounts and notified the Data Protection Commission. Information potentially exposed is basic account data: names, email addresses and account roles (employer, agent or employee); the department says broader and more sensitive personal data does not appear to be affected. The portal is expected back on Tuesday Nov 3, and permit processing continues in the meantime.
