Detailed information about the job performance of more than 900 employees of Regus owner IWG was accidentally published online after the shared office business conducted a review of sales staff.

A spreadsheet which lists the names and work addresses of hundreds of Regus sales managers alongside detailed reviews of their performance was made accessible to anyone using a simple Google search, The Telegraph has found.
Employee performance data was then published to a page on task management website Trello which had been made public, allowing the files to leak into Google search results.

IWG and Applause removed the documents after the companies were contacted by The Telegraph.

An Applause spokesman said: “Since being made aware of this issue, we have reiterated our InfoSec policies with our worldwide employees, and have run an internal audit to confirm that there are no other unapproved third-party software tools being used in any client engagements.”

The Telegraph found in 2018 that hundreds of sensitive Cabinet Office, Home Office and NHS documents had also been leaked online through Trello.
