Prose, List or Table?

There are perhaps 7 known breaches. Options for representing these are perhaps prose, list or table.

Prose is easy to write, and great for narrative

Table is great when when we have similar data on each entry.

List is easy to scan, easy to write, but perhaps not as easy as table to compare attributes on each row.

What is most appropriate? Chumpih ^t 22:10, 23 March 2022 (UTC)

A table seems inappropriate for what is just "breach - date - info". Obviously if we want to set up a narrative prose is best; the way I wrote prose originally was weak and hard to read. Prose can work given a more experienced editor. List works for now, but a list comes off as a bit tacky IMO. My preference, in order, goes prose, list, and table. elijahpepe@wikipedia (he/him) 23:31, 23 March 2022 (UTC)

Depending on the sourcing that's available, I think prose is better. There's been some major breaches, and some of the largest definitely deserve their own sections. Sideswipe9th (talk) 03:59, 24 March 2022 (UTC)

Should the logo be removed?

The current logo was added in Jan 2024 as part of a edit that was later undone. The only other copy of the image I can find is as the logo of a Telegram group. I have yet to confirm the group's legitimacy. It is possible the group is a copycat.

Unless someone can find a source for the current logo being the actual group's logo, I suggest it be removed. 2604:3D09:9279:9C00:A40E:EAB0:8844:10C3 (talk) 21:57, 18 August 2025 (UTC)

Similarly, a search using Google Lens's Image Search resulted in just the telegram channel. And I agree, there doesn't seem to be an obvious way to validate that channel. While the image is pretty anodyne and harmless, we shouldn't be including and giving credibility to content that can't be validated. Chumpih ^t 06:48, 19 August 2025 (UTC)

Needs update

Noticed it only has up to 2022 nothing newer then 2022 Isla🏳️‍⚧ 10:37, 24 September 2025 (UTC)

LAPSUS$ has not had much activity attributed to it since the arrest of several members in the last few years. It's widely though to be a part of 'The Com' ecosystem, so many of its members or attributed activity may be under other labels now, such as Scattered Spider. 2604:3D09:9279:9C00:E908:7229:6045:B48 (talk) 20:37, 24 September 2025 (UTC)

Indeed, the recent Jaguar Land Rover cyberattack's apparent perps dubbed themselves Scattered Lapsus$ Hunters. But it might be tricky to demonstrate conclusively at this stage that ex-members of Lapsus$ were involved, although some sources suggest this as a possibility.
