These are incidents that would constitute serious cybercrimes if a human was responsible. That is deeply concerning,” wrote the lawmakers. “Your companies have since notified the affected parties, but the delayed pattern is alarming. In several cases, someone other than the developer caught the breach.  No company or organization, least of all a Major Non-NATO Ally of the United States, should learn of an intrusion months later from a generic email or a news report that their systems were compromised. When incidents come to light in this delayed and underplayed way, neither Congress nor the public can assess the true scale and severity of the problem.” Read the full letter here . Share on
