WBAL-TV11 started digging into the #Kairos attack on the State Attorney's Office for the City of Baltimore.
Kairos had exfiltrated 325 GB of files, and none of it appeared to have been protected with any encryption. My previous report on the incident can be found here: https://databreaches.net/2025/04/19/baltimore-city-states-attorneys-office-hacked-data-leaked/
The city has now confirmed they had a breach (they were notified by law enforcement as they hadn't detected it on their own, it seems). But they are not giving out any details or answering any questions. See WBAL-TV's coverage at https://www.wbaltv.com/article/baltimore-states-attorney-office-cybersecurity-incident/64551797
So, of course, I have now filed a public records request under #MPIA to try to get answers to some questions because the state ignored all of my polite email inquiries.
Did I ever mention that I hate not getting answers to questions? :)
