This is insane:
- First the govt gets hacked, because there was a default password on the authentication system
- Then the hackers steal Personally Identifiable Information (PII), all of which was unencrypted.
- Then they make a public announcement, to claim that "The industry standard is that most SSNs are not encrypted"
- Moreover, the attack happened in mid-September, but was disclosed in late-October. The government is now giving free insurance "now" to the effected.
