Do Crimes With Congress’ Leaked Social Security Numbers
The health insurance exchange for Washington, DC had a problem in the form of a massive security leak this week. The health data breach leaked Congress’s social security numbers, addresses, phone numbers, the names of family members, and more. Regulators could definitely do more about data breaches, but hey what’s a little data between friends. The word for this is schadenfreude, though it affected DC staffers too, which is a bummer.
The data is apparently for sale on some criminal trading website by a guy who goes by “thekilob,” which is very on brand for a dark web bad boy, if you ask me.
