A hacker using the handle "USDoD" has reportedly stolen contact information on more than 80,000 members of an FBI-run program called InfraGard and put the information up for sale on an English-speaking Dark Web forum.
The information the hacker accessed from InfraGard's database appears to be fairly basic and in some cases does not even include an email address, according to KrebsOnSecurity, which first reported on the incident this week. But the information belongs to CISOs, security directors, IT and C-suite executives, healthcare professionals, emergency managers, and law enforcement and military personnel directly responsible for protecting US critical infrastructure.
