Hackers have Hacked into US Arrest Records Database
The Group of teenage hackers, which previously hacked into the personal email of the CIA directorJohn Brennan and published a large trove of sensitive data, has now had its hands on even more important and presumably secure target.
Hackers Accessed Law Enforcement Private Portal
The hacking group, Crackas With Attitude (CWA), claims it has gained access to a Law Enforcement Portal through which one can access:
- Arrest records
- Tools for sharing information about terrorist events and active shooters
The system in question is reportedly known as the Joint Automated Booking System (JABS), which is only available to the Federal Bureau of Investigation (FBI) and law enforcement.
Hackers Gained Access to FBI's Real-Time Chat System
Moreover, the hacking group also says it has gained access to another tool that is something like a real-time chat system for the FBI to communicate with other law enforcement agents around the US.
Two days ago, CWA published a portion of the data it collected to Pastebin and Cryptobin, apparently releasing names, email addresses, and phone numbers of around 3,500 law enforcement and military personnel.
JABS System Hacked!
However, the group has been able to have its hands on many law enforcement tools that contain more sensitive information, and Wired verified that a screenshot of JABS shared by CWA was legitimate.
