DHS and DOJ must thoroughly investigate who breached HSIN, what the attackers accessed, and ensure all DHS partners are provided with timely information and the tools necessary to mitigate any associated risks from the breach.<\/em><\/p>\n<p><em>Furthermore, DHS must take a serious look within and account for how this happened and ensure a breach like this does not happen again. The homeland security community needs to have confidence that the information in HSIN is secure, and the American public needs to be able to trust that the Department responsible for America\u2019s cybersecurity has its own house in order.\u201d<\/em><\/p>\n<p><em><span style=\"font-size: 13pt;\">Follow us on <a rel=\"nofollow\" target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/x.com\/TheDailyHodl\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">X<\/a>, <a rel=\"nofollow\" target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/www.facebook.com\/thedailyhodl\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Facebook<\/a> and <a rel=\"nofollow\" target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/t.me\/thedailyhodl\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Telegram<\/a><\/span><\/em><br \/>\n<br \/>\n<em><span style=\"font-size: 13pt;\">Don&#8217;t Miss a Beat \u2013 <a rel=\"nofollow\" target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/dailyhodl.com\/join-the-daily-hodl-email-list\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Subscribe<\/a> to get email alerts delivered directly to your inbox <\/span><\/em><br \/>\n<br \/>\n<em><span style=\"font-size: 13pt;\">Surf <a rel=\"nofollow\" target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/dailyhodl.com\/daily-hodl-mix\">The Daily Hodl Mix<\/a><\/span><\/em><br \/>\n<\/p>\n<div class=\"hideinamp\">\n<p>&#038;nbsp<\/p>\n<h6>Disclaimer: Opinions expressed at The Daily Hodl are not investment advice.
