Hackers have compromised the personal email account of FBI Director Kash Patel.
It is unclear how much information the hackers were able to access in the Friday incident, but they have so far posted what appear to be authentic documents and photographs.
The FBI has not said much about the issue, but it is offering a $10 million reward to anyone who helps identify a member of the hacker group.
Is hacking a Different Dimension to the Iran War?
The hackers behind the Kash Patel email hack claimed to be from the Handala Hack Team, a group linked to Iran.
The group, which published Patel’s leaked information on its website, added a remark stating that it was just getting started.
A week ago, Patel announced that the Justice Department had authorized the disabling of four domains, found to be facilitating hacking and perpetrating fear in Iranian dissidents.
