FBI investigates breach of jobs website as hackers claim ‘very sensitive data’ stolen

The FBI is currently investigating an apparent breach of its official jobs website, FBIjobs.gov, which remained offline on Wednesday. A criminal hacking group known as ShinyHunters claimed responsibility for the attack, asserting they accessed very sensitive data belonging to nearly all agents and job applicants. The bureau confirmed it is aware of the unauthorized activity affecting the portal, which serves as the primary gateway for prospective employees to learn about the agency and initiate applications.
