DDoSecrets claims to have obtained BlueLeaks data from Anonymous.
Most of the files listed on the BlueLeaks portal are marked "Netsential.com Inc", a web hosting company based in Houston, Texas.

KrebsOnSecurity reported earlier today that the National Fusion Center Association (NFCA), a central police union in the United States, had confirmed the authenticity of the leak in an internal security alert it had sent to its members.

The NFCA said that after a preliminary analysis, the data appears to be coming from the servers of Netsential, a web hosting provider for many US law enforcement agencies.

Meanwhile, the data has already started circulating on the internet, showing the US police forces that participated in the Black Lives Matter protests in the USA.
