tl;dr: A group calling itself "Department of Peace" leaked data on 41,000+ DHS employees and contractors—including ICE, CBP, and HSI undercover agents—obtained allegedly via the department's Okta login system (though Okta denies any breach). The records, published by DDoSecrets as "Icepick," expose email addresses, phone numbers, office locations, supervisor relationships, and permission groups referencing wiretap programs, undercover operations, Palantir's Falcon, PenLink, Mobile Fortify facial recognition, and AI tools including xAI's Grok. Security experts warn the dataset could enable adversaries to identify vulnerable personnel, craft impersonation attacks, or compromise ongoing investigations. | |
