This is an active investigation. We believe we have identified at least one of the hackers and are baiting a honey trap to lure him into the UK in order to make an arrest. Moreover, we need to be very careful not to educate other criminal hackers about how we safeguard our assets and information. Accordingly, no part of this report may be made public or given to a third party without the prior express written permission of Bitstamp Ltd.
FWIW, even if ten forms of sensitive info is requested, safely assume the entity requested it will store it safely on their servers where nobody can get to it then publish it on the internet even if they could.
