Hackers Leak DHS Staff Directory, Claim FBI Is Next (csoonline.com)

itwbennett writes: On Sunday, the name, title, email address, and phone number of more than 9,000 DHS employees, with titles ranging from engineers, to security specialists, program analysts, InfoSec and IT, all the way up to director level was posted on Twitter. 'The account went on to claim that an additional data dump focused on 20,000 FBI employees was next,' writes CSO's Steve Ragan. The hacker told Motherboard that the data was obtained by "compromising the email account of a DoJ employee, although he would not elaborate on how that account was accessed in the first place."

    Great, I've been waiting forever for Mulder's email address. I want to ask him if he knows where his towel is.

    Heh, maybe Hillary will point out that HER server wasn't breached, but other government servers have been.
