DOGE has put everyone at risk.

While students returned to school this week, Wired spoke with a declared leader from a violent online group that was talking about whistling at universities across the United States in recent days. The group claims to be related to the Loose Virtual Cyber ​​Network, known as the Com, and the refined claim is responsible for contacting active-shooting warnings.

Researchers from numerous organizations have warned this week that cybercriminals are increasingly using AI manufacturing tools for ransomware fuel, including real situations in which cybercriminals use AI to develop malware without technical expertise. And it seems that a popular yet vague radio station, a short wave, known as the UVB-76, has become a tool for Kremlin advertising after decades of mystery and sedition.

But wait, there are more things! Every week, we collect security news and privacy that we have not covered deeply. Click the titles to read the full stories. And stay safe there.

Since the first time, critics have warned that young and inexperienced engineers in the so -called efficiency of the Elvan Maskan government (DOGE) are investigating security laws and privacy in dealing with the appearance of US government data. A female whistle now claims that DOGE employees have put a huge data set at risk of hacking or leaks: a triple database of personal data on American residents, including almost American social security number.

A complaint from the senior social security management manager, Charles Borges, presented to the New York Times, said that DOGE companies explicitly ignored security and privacy concerns for uploading SSA databases to a cloud server that lacks sufficient supervision. DOGE and SSA internal communications, reviewed by the Times, show that authorities, despite the concerns of SSA authorities about its insecurity, eliminate concerns about the absence of data or anonymous data before loading data.

Borges did not claim that the data was actually violated or leaked, but Borges emphasized the vulnerability of data and huge costs if endangered. “If bad actors have access to this cloud environment, Americans may be prone to widespread identity theft, they may lose health care and food benefits, and the government may be responsible for re -publishing new American social security numbers at a cost,” Borges wrote.

Nearly 10 months have passed since the disclosure that China’s Cyber ​​Group, known as the Topson Salt, passed by US communications and spyed on American calls and texts. FBI now warns that pure actors by these hackers may include potential victims in 80 countries than previously thought. Bert Litreman, a senior cyber office, the Wall Street Journal and the Washington Post, told the Wall Street Journal and the Washington Post that the hackers have shown at least 600 companies, which the FBI has informed, although it is not yet clear how many people have violated hackers or how much access to them. “This is an indivisible global targeting is really something outside of cyberspace operations,” Litreman told the Journal. The FBI says hacking the Salt Typhoon telecommunications alone resulted in access to spies to at least one million backgrounds and targeted calls and texts more than 100 Americans.

Days after the Alaska Donald Trump summit with Vladimir Putin, the White House moved to its intelligence categories. According to the Washington Post, a Russian CIA senior analyst – 29 years of service and for a wish abroad – was suddenly deprived of his discharge. He was one of the 37 positions that was forced to be forced by the National Intelligence Manager Tulsi Gabbard under August 19. There are no violations in this way. For colleagues, it seemed like a clearing of loyalty. The shooting has reportedly ignored the CIA’s rank and case and sends a message that Survival depends on consciousness to suit the president’s views.

On Monday, Gabard rebuilds what he calls “ODNI 2.0” that reduces more than 500 positions and brands the shutters or all offices that appear. The Center for Foreign malignant infiltration and cyber threat integration center are being returned, while the National Intelligence University is being recruited to the Pentagon Defense School. Gabard says the project saves $ 700 million annually and destroys information. Critics noted that, however, a legal sheet released by Gabard on Monday only showed some of the savings, and Tjeu warned that major repairs could create coordination after 9/11 to have expertise and exacerbate information at the time of threats.
