Biggest Cybersecurity incident of all time

Biggest Cybersecurity incident of all time

We might be witnessing the largest cyber security incident in the history of the world.

And it's not even a cool hacker story; it's just the biggest insider threat ever...

Over in America, Mr Musk has been given free rein to root around in the backend of the entire US government and make all kinds of unchecked changes.?

This incident is like giving your friend the keys to the bank because they told you they could help you tidy it up. It violates pretty much every tenet of cybersecurity.?

I've seen headlines about:

?? DOGE having unrestricted access to any government server they want.

?? Elon's team plugging in peripherals and taking and removing data as they please.?

?? 25-year-old interns are installing backdoors for monitoring purposes.?

Possibly, the largest treasure trove of private information and valuable data in the Western world is now accessible by a private group. To say that this is bad is a serious understatement.?

Who knew that all you had to do to breach the US gov was just be the richest man in the world?
