France Éducation international informe qu’un acte de cyber-malveillance a ciblé, entre le vendredi 9 janvier et le lundi 12 janvier 2026, la plateforme GAEL, utilisée pour la gestion des diplômes DELF et DALF.  

Cette cyberattaque a entraîné une atteinte à la confidentialité d’une partie des données personnelles des candidats et lauréats de ces diplômes depuis 2005, notamment les informations suivantes : civilité, nom, prénom, patronyme, ville de naissance, pays de naissance, date de naissance, nationalité, langue maternelle, premier centre de rattachement. Le principal risque potentiel pour les personnes concernées est l’usurpation d’identité. Nous invitons donc les candidats à la plus grande prudence. Une notification à la CNIL et un dépôt de plainte sont en cours.

Pour plus d’information, les candidats sont invités à lire le Communiqué officiel de FEI et/ou à prendre contact avec la Déléguée à la protection des données.
