US Government Audit Agency Hit by Cyber Heist: GAO Data Breach Exposes Thousands
US government employees’ data pilfered in a cyber heist! Third-party contractor CGI Federal confirms the GAO breach, affecting 6,600 souls. Social security numbers and banking info now in the clutches of digital desperados.
Hot Take:
Looks like CGI Federal played a game of 'Capture the Flag,' and the flag was a treasure trove of GAO employee data. Whoopsie daisy! Maybe it's time to consider that cybersecurity isn't just a service you offer, but also something you practice. Let's hope this breach is a wake-up call that echoes through the corridors of all third-party government contractors: Secure your systems or prepare for some very awkward conversations with Uncle Sam.Already a member?
