    It's possible this set of instructions by the CISA contractor might have caused all the trouble:

        New, by me: CISA Admin Leaked AWS GovCloud Keys on GitHub

        Until this past weekend, a contractor for the Cybersecurity & Infrastructure Security Agency (CISA) maintained a public GitHub repository that exposed credentials to several highly privileged AWS GovCloud accounts and a large number of internal CISA systems. Security experts said the public archive included files detailing how CISA builds, tests and deploys software internally, and that it represents one of the most egregious government data leaks in recent history.

          @krypt3ia @briankrebs which is ironic, because ive talked to almost half a dozen shops who cisa was paying as their outsourced assessment teams, but when i asked to be one of those they told me to fuck off, then 'how dare you'd me because i asked to be paid for my work. i have all the receipts. made sure to keep those emails tagged.

              @briankrebs “Currently, there is no indication that any sEnSiTIVe datA was compromised as a result of this incident,” the CISA spokesperson wrote. "I mean, of course, sensitive data was exposed, but not sEnSiTIVe datA."

                  @briankrebs Are you seriously telling me that somebody stored AWS govcloud secrets in a github repo ? In a file called "Important AWS Tokens" ? Do they not know who github is ? Is it intentional ?

                  Has that person been fired into the sun yet, along with whoever hired them ?

                  At some point its intentional. When you have that type of access it should be assumed it is.

                    CISA should know better than to use Cloud. AWS in particular. SMH.

                              @GerardThornley @briankrebs I guess you have to store secrets somewhere, in your source or CI/CD pipeline playbook. I hope people are not checking in private keys, or the CEO's email password.

                              But govcloud IIRC is basically AWS but "secure for fedramp". Then using "github" for your source control is like the Manhattan Project keeping their notebooks in the local college library, but in a locked room.

                                  @chux0r @briankrebs This is correct. The regime shitcanned everyone associated Biden’s CISA, including the contractors and brought their own people in. Watched it happen

                                    It's possible this set of instructions by the CISA contractor might have caused all the trouble:

                                    @briankrebs Seems this dude doesn't know how git works and the organisation did not enforced Separation of work and private stuff (on different devices!).

                                      New, by me: CISA Admin Leaked AWS GovCloud Keys on GitHub

                                      Until this past weekend, a contractor for the Cybersecurity & Infrastructure Security Agency (CISA) maintained a public GitHub repository that exposed credentials to several highly privileged AWS GovCloud accounts and a large number of internal CISA systems. Security experts said the public archive included files detailing how CISA builds, tests and deploys software internally, and that it represents one of the most egregious government data leaks in recent history.

                                          @briankrebs There's no way this is not intentional.
