Summary
Elon Musk’s DOGE website mistakenly published classified intelligence data, including personnel and budget details for the National Reconnaissance Office.
The breach sent Defense Department officials scrambling, as the NRO’s headcount and budget are typically classified. Intelligence aides confirmed the leak is problematic under current security standards.
Concerns have also been raised about DOGE’s inexperienced staff. The White House has not commented, and the site was later hacked.
These systems are typically air-gapped so to be able to acquire it is a particularly bad fuck-up.
That being said information from unclassed systems can become classified when put in a single place/file for easy consumption.
Either way someone really, REALLY fucked up here.
