From PC Mag: NASA servers were compromised in October, Bob Gibbs, Assistant Administrator for NASA's Office of the Chief Human Capital Officer, announced in a Tuesday memo to employees.
As SpaceRef reports, the NASA server compromise happened on Oct. 23 and the servers targeted contained personally identifiable information (PII) for both current and former NASA employees. The personal data included Social Security numbers and "other PII data."
Although NASA's cybersecurity team quickly contained the breach, it remains unclear exactly how much data was accessed. There is no time frame given for when this will be known, just that "NASA and its Federal cybersecurity partners" are examining the breach and will at some point in the future be able to conclude just how many people are affected.
