FBI investigates major breach of its own job portal
Original: FBI investigating massive data breach of the bureau's job portal
The FBI is investigating a large-scale data breach involving the bureau's own job application portal. Applicant information may have been exposed, though the exact number of people affected and the identity of those responsible have not been confirmed. The breach is drawing attention because the agency responsible for investigating cyberattacks was itself targeted.
Why now: The irony of the FBI's own systems being breached, combined with potential exposure of applicant data, is driving public interest.
