Canadian gold-mining company Goldcorp has suffered a data breach of seemingly catastrophic proportions.

On Tuesday, the attackers leaked a lot of sensitive internal data about the company and its employees, and have promised to leak more, including “14 months of company wide emails, emails containing some good old fashion corporate racism, sexism, and greed.”

The first batch of stolen data – 14.8 GB in all – has been posted on a public paste site, and includes: employee correspondence, payroll information, bank account and current budget information, a list of the company’s contacts all over the world, personal information about employees (names, job titles, mobile phone numbers, email addresses, passport scans), network information (including employee passwords), documents defining various procedures (e.g. IT and disaster recovery procedures), and more.
