US military leak exposes “holy grail” of security clearance files
- mtgx 10y agoIt doesn't seem to be any worse than the OPM hack, as it's on a much smaller scale. It's still bad for the 4,000 military employees, though, but their SF86 forms were probably already leaked in the OPM hack to begin with. I'm still surprised the OPM hack didn't receive much more attention. I wonder if it had anything to do with the previous administration's unhealthily tight relationship with the media. http://www.defenseone.com/technology/2015/06/second-opm-hack-compromised-information-military-intelligence-workers/115213/ http://www.defenseone.com/technology/2015/06/second-opm-hack...
