DataBreaches summarized reporting that hacktivists calling themselves Department of Peace claimed to have hacked DHS and leaked allegedly stolen documents. The transparency collective DDoSecrets published data described as relating to contracts between DHS, ICE, and more than 6,000 companies (including major defense contractors and large technology firms). The report attributes the source to DHSs Office of Industry Partnership procurement unit; DHS confirmation and the exact intrusion method were not provided in the DataBreaches excerpt.
