TOP secret security information on British military and intelligence sites has been leaked online by hackers linked to Russia.
They released thousands of pages of data which could help criminals get into the HMNB Clyde nuclear submarine base, the Porton Down chemical weapon lab and a GCHQ listening post.
Information about high-security prisons and a military site key to our cyber defences was also stolen in the raid by group LockBit.
Hackers targeted the databases of Zaun, a firm which makes fences for maximum security sites.
The information was then placed on to the internet's dark web, which can be accessed using special software.
Last night Labour MP Kevan Jones, who sits on the Commons Defence Select Committee, warned: "This is potentially very damaging to the security of some of our most sensitive sites.
"The Government needs to explain why this firm's computer systems were so vulnerable. Any information which gives security arrangements to potential enemies is of huge concern.
We can reveal the information was stolen last month in a major attack on West Midlands-based Zaun, which makes fences and perimeter security measures for high-risk sites and provided security barriers at the London 2012 Olympics.
LockBit is described as the world's most dangerous hacking gang and key suspects are on the FBI's Most Wanted list after attacks on 1,400 global targets.
They include a £66million blackmail attempt on the Royal Mail - which refused to pay up.
