Department of Homeland Security HACKED by Russian Government

Probably one of the bigger news articles I've seen in relations to cyber security in recent years.

DHS, U.S. Treasury and Commerce Depts have all been compromised

All thanks to SolarWind

I was running UDT which uses Orion on the version that is supposedly vulnerable... luckily, I block outbound access for that server and have a very high level of auditing and alerting.

"Russia" -_- US really wants to start a war with Russia don't they.
IMO the SolarWind hack has to be listed as the biggest breach in history.
