US military notifies 20,000 of data breach after cloud email leak
Reading Time: < 1 minutesThe U.S. Department of Defense is notifying tens of thousands of individuals that their personal information was exposed in an email data spill last year.
According to the breach notification letter sent out to affected individuals on February 1, the Defense Intelligence Agency — the DOD’s military intelligence agency — said, ‘numerous email messages were inadvertently exposed to the Internet by a service provider,’ between February 3 and February 20, 2023.
The DOD is sending breach notification letters to around 20,600 individuals whose information was affected.
DefenseScoop first reported news of the breach notification letters.
Anyone with the public IP address of the exposed cloud email server could access the sensitive but unclassified emails inside using only a web browser.
It’s not clear for what reason the DOD took a year to investigate the incident or notify those affected.
A spokesperson for Microsoft did not respond to a request for comment.
