Scans of 153 million driver's licenses, traced to IDscan.net and including Pete Hegseth and Brian Krebs, were offered for sale on the dark web.
Digital scans of 153 million driver's licenses appeared for sale by a user on the Russian cybercrime forum Exploit, alongside over 10 million ID cards, 3 million travel documents, and 579,000 medical cards sold through a site called Nexus. KrebsOnSecurity traced the leak to identity verification provider IDscan.net, whose customers include car rental company Hertz, and victims reportedly include US Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth. The FBI has opened an official inquiry into the source of the images, and IDscan.net has not issued an official statement.

FBI Probes Possible Breach of 153 Million Driver’s Licenses
FBI investigates possible breach exposing up to 170M North American driver's licenses, data sold on Exploit forum via 'Nexus' service, linked to IDScan.net.
The FBI is investigating a potentially massive breach of identity data affecting as many as 170 million North Americans, first reported by Krebs. The 'Nexus' service on the Exploit cybercrime forum claimed to hold over 153 million US and Canadian driver's licenses plus ID cards, travel documents, and medical cards, sourced from an active breach at a major identity verification company. Krebs linked the trove to New Orleans-based IDScan.net, which is investigating. The service went dark shortly after publication; experts warn stolen license data (DOB, address, ID numbers) can't be changed and could enable lifelong identity fraud.

Hackers Got Inside a Flock Camera. Its Data Shows How the System Really Worksnew
Hackers stole a Flock Safety camera, copied its storage, and recovered an encryption key exposing vehicle surveillance data and system internals.
Hackers from the collective stegan0gram removed a Flock Safety license plate reader from a roadway, copied its storage, and recovered an encryption key stored in an unencrypted partition, unlocking videos of thousands of vehicle detections. The data, shared with 404 Media, WIRED, and Distributed Denial of Secrets, shows the camera generated roughly 1.6 million images of about 50,200 vehicles over 21 days and detects people, bicycles, and bumper stickers in addition to license plates. The dump follows 2025 research by Jon 'GainSec' Gaines documenting flaws enabling root access, which Flock downplayed. Flock's national network makes camera records searchable by more than 2,000 agencies, fueling controversy over police and immigration lookups.

The 12 Best Managed XDR Services, Compared and Priced
A comparison of twelve managed XDR providers covering pricing models, telemetry breadth, and distinguishing genuine MXDR from rebranded MDR services.
The article compares twelve managed XDR providers including Bitdefender, CrowdStrike, Palo Alto Unit 42, Trend Micro, Fortinet, Secureworks Taegis, Stellar Cyber, Ontinue, and ReliaQuest, highlighting pricing models and telemetry breadth. It explains that genuine MXDR must actively monitor identity, cloud, and email telemetry rather than merely ingest it, and typically costs 30-60% more than endpoint-only MDR. It also notes Sophos completed its approximately $859 million acquisition of Secureworks in February 2025.
