The recent leak of sensitive US military operations through the Signal messaging platform has revealed a critical vulnerability in security protocols, highlighting that individuals outside a standard onboarding process, like MPs and temporary workers, are at risk. These individuals often lack adequate training in information security, exposing organizations to potential breaches. This situation is exacerbated by the placement of untrained individuals in sensitive roles, like a student at GCHQ, who mishandled sensitive documents. The article emphasizes the need for better information security governance and training for all individuals with access to sensitive data, regardless of their employment status.
