Details of thousands of US immigration agents leaked in major hack
A group called the Department of Peace released information on more than 41,000 DHS staff.
Details of more than 41,000 personnel working for the US Department of Homeland Security (DHS), including thousands involved in immigration enforcement, have been leaked to the public.
The leak includes names, work addresses and phone numbers of DHS staff, including agents working with Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) and Customs and Border Protection, along with descriptions of the work they do for each agency.
Wednesday's leak marks the third time in recent weeks that a government agency has been targeted by leaks or hacks.
A spokesperson for the Department of Peace pointed directly at actions by ICE agents for the group's work to hack DHS records.
