This is what happens when you focus mostly on offensive capabilities and surveillance and do almost nothing about the actual security of the systems. Sounds like the main culprit of this data breach was not patching their systems and not using 2-FA. Also, when you want to make it easy for the NSA to get data on Americans, you're also making it easy for China to do the same - I wonder if this is finally when the administration will get it (but I'm not holding my breath): > And a number of administration officials in interviews on Friday painted a picture of Chinese adversaries who appear to be building huge databases of information on American citizens, useful for intelligence gathering and other purposes. Also, it didn't help the security that Obama hired technological morons as CISOs and "cyber czars" with their "big picture" ideas. > Mr. Earnest said Mr. Obama’s efforts to push legislation would bolster the nation’s data. “We need the United States Congress to come out of the Dark Ages and actually join us here in the 21st century to make sure that we have the kinds of defenses that are necessary to protect a modern computer system,” he said. Yup. So still not taking this seriously. The current "cybersecurity" bills are all about surveillance, not about actual security defense. Well okay then.
