Federal cyberattack details surface in government breaches
The Department of Energy and military personnel report a more intricate cyber breach affecting current and former federal workers since the 1980s. Estimates cited range up to 14 million records with about 4.2 million current employees. DOE officials say a June 12 intrusion affected background investigation data across agencies and contractors, with ongoing investigations by the OPS, Homeland Security, and the FBI. Representative Joe Wilson pushed the Cyberattack Standards Study Act to quantify and respond to cyber incidents.
