Hackers Stole Data On Every Federal Employee

Matthew 24:7 For nation will rise against nation, and kingdom against kingdom. And there will be famines, pestilences, and earthquakes in various places.

Editor’s Note: In May 2011, the Wall Street Journal published an article titled “Pentagon: Cyber Attacks Can Count as Acts of War.” The article began, “The Pentagon has concluded that computer sabotage coming from another country can constitute an act of war, a finding that for the first time opens the door for the U.S. to respond using traditional military force.”

The hack of government servers by a group of suspected Chinese hackers is significantly worse than initially reported.

The national president of the American Federation of Government Employees revealed that the hack released information for every federal employee to the unknown hackers.

“Based on the sketchy information OPM (Office of Personnel Management) has provided, we believe that the Central Personnel Data File was the targeted database, and that the hackers are now in possession of all personnel data for every federal employee, every federal retiree, and up to one million former federal employees,” J. David Cox said in the letter dated Thursday.

The government had admitted the breach was the largest in government history and reached as many as four million employees.

Now Cox has revealed that the Social Security numbers, military records, addresses, birth dates, pay histories, health insurance and pension information of all government employees were at the mercy of the hackers.

The White House has refused to name China as the source of the hacking but several senators including Senator Harry Reid and Senator Susan Collins have said the attack came from China.

  1. Many possibilities. Look at how often hacker reports have been “news” in the last several years in retail businesses, now we are told personal info is threatened in government systems. Consider a nwo ploy to convince citizens that accepting a RDIF implant or similar is the “safe” way to control usage of their information by eliminating stored data or plastic cards. It’s strange, but I put nothing past them.

  2. Many of us have heard that America will be destroyed from within…now we can understand how this is already coming to pass…….another piece of the lastdays puzzle….thanks so much for all you do for our Lord and His people……God bless you all….
