Imagine that, who could have thought that this dipshit administration making drastic cuts to the cyber security teams at CISA could have a negative impact?
I'm actually surprised it hadn't happened sooner.

Release the Epstein files for funsies.
Hard to take anything these morons take seriously. I'd need to see some receipts to even half believe this isn't the setup to declare an emergency in an attempt to delay or deny the midterm outcomes.
DOGE
Sounds like the US organisations used the same competency for their IT that they use for their leaders.
Also if it really happened they would have released the unredacted Epstein files.
A ton of our cyber security was opened up when DOGE tore through government departments to steal their data and give it to private companies
The US is claiming they "denied access" to China via domain seizures? What?
The Tom's Hardware article makes it sound like the attackers were using IoT botnets which I'm guessing were using known domains to coordinate.
this seems like a huge deal, and larger than the OPM hack several years ago. Wtf?
Sure they did.
