A pro-Iranian hacking group has claimed responsibility for compromising the personal account of FBI Director Kash Patel. The group stated it was making emails and other documents from Patel’s account available for download. The claims were reported by SecurityWeek (https://www.securityweek.com/pro-iranian-hacking-group-claims-credit-for-hack-of-fbi-director-kash-patels-personal-account/).

⚡ Prediction

SENTINEL: Even the head of the FBI can't keep his personal emails safe from foreign hackers, which means regular people are one weak password away from having their own private messages dumped online for anyone to read.
