The National Social Security Fund of Morocco has experienced a significant data breach, compromising sensitive personal information of its beneficiaries. The breach has raised concerns about the security measures in place to protect citizen data and the potential ramifications for those affected.
The Trump administration has denied allegations from a whistleblower that officials at the Social Security Administration (SSA) copied sensitive data to an insecure cloud system. SSA Commissioner Frank Bisignano stated that the NUMIDENT database has not been compromised and that the agency's cloud infrastructure is secure and continuously monitored. He emphasized that the data has been stored in Amazon Web Services (AWS) without any transfers to a private cloud server.
