Anybody left at Kash Patel's #FBI would probably betray the country if it were advantageous, but they're having doubts. LOTS of people are having all kinds of doubts about going along with any kind of ham fisted attempt to stop the #midterms. This is because the people fought back. It's abundantly clear we will not back down if they try to use the FBI to seize ballots in Georgia. Maybe they thought that would serve them last year, but this year is a whole 'nother.

Breaking, exclusive: Feds Suspect Ransom Negotiator Ran ShinyHunters Extortion Site U.S. federal investigators pursuing the ShinyHunters hacking group that recently stole highly sensitive data from the FBI have identified executives at two different ransomware negotiation firms who maintained unusually close relations with the extortion group, KrebsOnSecurity has learned. Sources close to the investigation say one of the executives in the United States even helped ShinyHunters operate a website that pressured victims into paying a ransom. From the story: "KrebsOnSecurity has learned from two sources close to the ShinyHunters probe that FBI investigators believe at least one executive at a U.S.-based consulting firm played an active role in operating the now-defunct ShinyHunters victim extortion website “shinywire[.]com.” KrebsOnSecurity is not naming the U.S. company or the suspected executive(s) for now because they have not yet been charged with a crime, but it is a prestigious firm with more than 1,000 associates." https://krebsonsecurity.com/2026/10/feds-suspect-ransom-negotiator-ran-shinyhunters-extortion-site/ #shinyhunters #cybercrime #ransomware #fbi #shinywire

FBI Hired #SocialMedia Surveillance Firm That Labeled #BlackLivesMatter Organizers “Threat Actors” "A new Senate report calls out the FBI for lying to Congress about its social media monitoring, pointing out the FBI’s hiring of ZeroFox. (...) The FBI’s primary tool for monitoring social media threats is the same contractor that labeled peaceful Black Lives Matter protest leaders DeRay McKesson and Johnetta Elzie as “threat actors” requiring “continuous monitoring” in 2015. The contractor, ZeroFox, identified McKesson and Elzie as posing a “high severity” physical threat, despite including no evidence that McKesson or Elzie were suspected of criminal activity." https://theintercept.com/2023/07/06/fbi-social-media-surveillance-zerofox/ #Rassismus #USA #BLM #FBI #Surveillance #Antireport

In addition to the #FBI getting hacked, the #Pentagon’s personnel database breach exposed sensitive data on nearly 3 million people. The breach included Social Security numbers & details about jobs people held. The scope & sensitivity of the exposed information could raise #NationalSecurity concerns, particularly because the files included details about the jobs performed by #military & civilian personnel. #InfoSec #cybersecurity #Trump #kakistocracy

In today's Breach Please, @malwarejake@infosec.exchange and I talk about how Shiny Hunters got into the FBI through an unpatched Oracle PeopleSoft O-day, walking out with employee, applicant, and family data from AWS GovCloud. Plus: technical debt, the case for just patching, and a PR moment involving two dogs.

NEW by me: ShinyHunters escalates dispute with FBI; claims to have seized job applicants' site and acquired data First, they threatened Clop this week, and now the FBI. Some will disagree with me strongly, but I actually agree with ShinyHunters on some of their objections to a May 2026 FBI bulletin about them. That still doesn't excuse them hacking and extorting them, of course. https://databreaches.net/2026/09/22/shinyhunters-escalates-dispute-with-fbi-claims-to-have-seized-job-applicants-site-and-acquired-data/ #databreach #govsec #cybersecurity #extortion #ShinyHunters #FBI #Cl0p
