五角大楼通知超过200万名现役和退役军人,他们的个人记录因该机构网络遭到入侵而被盗。这是近几个月来第二次发生此类敏感政府信息泄露事件。

The Pentagon is informing more than 2 million current and former military members that their personnel records storing sensitive personal information were stolen over a monthslong compromise of one of its networks. The breach is the second one in recent months to expose sensitive government information.

根据发布在Reddit上的一封通知信,这些记录包括社会安全号码、姓名、地址、性别、种族和职业专长。

The records, according to one notification letter posted to Reddit, included Social Security numbers, names, addresses, sex, race, and occupational specialty.

其中,职业专长对外国对手可能特别有价值,因为这有助于他们的情报机构识别高价值的军事人员。

This last category could be particularly valuable to foreign adversaries because it could help their intelligence agencies in identifying high-value military personnel.

自去年10月以来,黑客入侵了由国防人力数据中心运营的系统,该系统负责整理国防部的人员记录。五角大楼称,此次入侵影响了280万人的记录。

Starting last October, hackers gained access to a system operated by the Defense Manpower Data Center, which collates Department of Defense personnel records. The Pentagon says that the breach compromised the records of 2.8 million living individuals.

这是近几个月来第二次发生重大网络入侵事件,导致美国政府人员的敏感信息被泄露,这些信息可能被犯罪组织或外国对手利用。

The incident is the second time a major network breach in recent months has exposed sensitive US government personnel records that criminal groups or foreign adversaries could use.

上个月,勒索软件组织ShinyHunters声称入侵了FBI的系统,并窃取了数千名FBI现役或退役员工的记录。据路透社报道,这些记录中包含与调查中国或俄罗斯相关的职位。

Last month, the ransomware group ShinyHunters claimed it hacked into FBI systems and stole records of thousands of the agency’s current or former employees. Reuters reported the job titles in the records included ones related to investigating China or Russia.
