A Defense Contractor Gave Their AI Agent Access to a Secure Pentagon System

Accenture has been named as a defendant in over 90 lawsuits and federal court cases https://docketnexus.com/party/accenture-llp/?activity=meanin...

DoD network access for two months imagine what was copied off and to where eventually hey you know how the DoD has never passed an audit I bet "AI" could find the financial problems but they won't ever use it like that

Lets face it, contractors in many other countries have done the same. NSA probably detected this leak while going through openai data to datamine other countries :)

I would ask why the contractor needs access to the network. That the pentagon did not do that from the start smells of security principles that have not been correctly applied. Access granted should be limited and specific only for the reason required.

If they could give their AI Agent access, then by definition it wasn't a secure system.
