Hackers have leaked documents stolen from a major IT company that services the Pentagon. Bloomberg News reports that Leidos Holdings recently discovered the breach and suspects the documents were stolen from Diligent Corp.
Reuters reported, “The Virginia-based company, which counts the U.S. Department of Defense as its primary customer, used the Diligent system to host information gathered in internal investigations, citing a June 2023 filing.”
“A Diligent spokesperson told Bloomberg that the leak appeared to be from a 2022 hack affecting its subsidiary, Steele Compliance Solutions, acquired in 2021. Fewer than 15 customers, including Leidos, used the product at the time,” Reuters added.
Bloomberg reported, “Hackers have leaked internal documents stolen from Leidos Holdings Inc., one of the largest IT services providers to the US government, according to a person familiar with the matter. Leidos recently learned of the issue and believes the documents were stolen in a previously disclosed breach of a Diligent Corp. system it used. Leidos is investigating the issue, the person added.”
Under Joe Biden’s administration, hackers and cyberattacks have become increasingly common. Earlier this month, one of the largest healthcare systems in America canceled all non-urgent visits, procedures, and surgeries due to a computer outage linked to the cybersecurity firm Crowdstrike.
The Gateway Pundit previously reported that major “IT outages” are affecting banking systems, healthcare systems, emergency services, and airlines’ communications worldwide. Mass General Brigham, serving 2.5 million patients annually across its 15 hospitals and clinics, has suspended all non-urgent visits, procedures, and surgeries. Our elections aren’t even secured.
