“本周早些时候,我们外勤特工逮捕了‘赏金猎人’团伙的另一名涉案同谋,该团伙被认为是近期联邦调查局求职网站事件的肇事者,此次事件发生在第三方供应商管理的平台上,”帕特尔在10月9日的一份声明中说道。

帕特尔表示,联邦调查局正与其合作伙伴合作,瓦解该团伙及其关联人员。
“此次逮捕彰显了我们保护美国民众免受网络犯罪侵害的努力力度和覆盖范围。我们将继续与合作伙伴密切合作,摧毁‘赏金猎人’团伙及其关联人员的残余势力,无论他们在何处活动。”
“赏金猎人”是一个犯罪性黑客勒索团伙,此前宣称通过联邦调查局的求职门户网站获取了该局雇员和求职者的敏感个人信息。

据路透社此前报道,该团伙称其窃取了几乎所有联邦调查局探员及申请在该局工作的人员的信息。该团伙向路透社提供的一份数据样本包含探员姓名、家庭住址、社会保险号码、任务信息,在部分案例中还包含家庭成员姓名。
联邦调查局此前表示,正在调查此次入侵是起源于该局内部系统,还是通过支持联邦调查局求职网站的第三方供应商发生的。所谓的入侵规模尚未得到独立证实。
杰森·帕克是退休的联邦调查局资深特工、Media Rep Global Strategies首席执行官,他此前告诉福克斯新闻数字频道,被盗人事信息与获取机密调查系统的访问权限之间的区别至关重要。

Retired FBI agent breaks down bureau’s jobs breach risks, warns of sophisticated scams
Jason Pack, a retired FBI supervisory special agent turned CEO of Media Rep Global Strategies, explains how stolen personal and assignment information could be exploited while stressing there is no evidence hackers accessed classified FBI systems.

FBI Director Kash Patel announced Friday that agents arrested another suspected co-conspirator linked to the ShinyHunters hacking group earlier this week during the bureau’s investigation of a cybersecurity incident involving its jobs website.
The arrest is the latest in a series of FBI actions against the hacking network in recent days, according to Patel, who said investigators are pursuing additional leads and evidence.
“Earlier this week, our agents in the field arrested another suspected co-conspirator of the ShinyHunters group, the group believed to be responsible for the recent FBIjobs.gov incident, which occurred on a platform managed by a third-party vendor,” Patel said in an Oct. 9 statement.

Patel said the FBI is working with its partners to dismantle the group and its associates.
“This arrest demonstrates the strength and reach of our efforts to protect Americans from cybercrime. We will continue to work closely with our partners to disrupt what’s left of the ShinyHunters group and their associates, no matter where they operate.”
ShinyHunters, a criminal hacking and extortion group, previously said it obtained sensitive personal information belonging to FBI employees and applicants through the bureau’s jobs portal.

The group said it stole information belonging to nearly all FBI agents and people who applied to work for the bureau, Reuters previously reported. A sample of data shared with the outlet contained agents’ names, home addresses, Social Security numbers, assignments and, in some cases, names of family members.
The FBI previously said it was investigating whether the breach originated within its own systems or through a third-party provider supporting FBIJobs.gov. The extent of the alleged breach has not been independently confirmed.
Jason Pack, a retired FBI supervisory special agent and CEO of Media Rep Global Strategies, previously told Fox News Digital the distinction between stolen personnel information and access to classified investigative systems is critical.

“There is a meaningful difference between somebody obtaining personnel information and somebody gaining access to classified investigative systems,” Pack said. “Based on what we know right now, there is no indication they have the keys to the kingdom.”
