Unauthorized access begins
A DMDC information system experiences unauthorized access of personally identifiable information by a small number of unauthorized users, per a defense official.
The DMDC compromise of 3.05 million personnel records — with a nine-month dwell time and no detected misuse — exposes the Defense Department to Privacy Act claims, congressional scrutiny and OPM-style class action litigation. Affected military and civilian personnel may pursue damages for SSN and job-detail exposure.
