Summary

Hide ▲

The U.S. Supreme Court, AmeriCorps, and the Department of Veterans Affairs suffered a stolen-credential account compromise that exposed restricted systems and sensitive personal and health information. The access spanned August to October 2023 and included repeated logins to the Supreme Court filing system, MyAmeriCorps, and My HealtheVet. The breach matters because it reached federal records platforms holding identity data, service history, and private medical details. Screenshots and account details were also posted publicly from the compromised activity.
