Law enforcement personnel and public officials may be at an increased risk of cyber attacks
Connectikpeople.co recalls that, the Internet Crime Complaint Center (IC3) has issued an alert warning that law enforcement personnel and public officials may be at an increased risk of cyber attacks.
In addition to doxing (the act of gathering and publishing
individuals' personal information without permission), threat actors have been
observed compromising the email accounts of officers and officials. These
target groups should protect their online presence and exposure.
Therefore, Connectikpeople.co encourages
users to review the IC3
Alert for details
