United StatesThe Department of Homeland Security (DHS) is investigating a potential cyberattack on its Homeland Security Information Network (HSIN), a platform used by federal, state, and local agencies to share intelligence and coordinate responses to emergencies. According to reports from Nextgov and Bleeping Computer, hackers accessed HSIN servers between late May and early June, possibly exposing sensitive, though unclassified, information. DHS confirmed the breach and stated they have isolated affected systems and launched a forensic investigation.

This incident adds to concerns about federal cybersecurity after years of budget cuts under the Trump administration. The breach comes amid increased scrutiny of the government's ability to protect critical infrastructure.
