Musk under fire: cyber security alarm in the USA!

In an alarming report that questions the security situation in the United States, IT experts and data protectionists warn against the far-reaching consequences of Elon Musk's access to the Federal Government's computers. This approved infiltration, which has been running since President Donald Trump took office, shows that young, inexperienced computer scientists, many from Musk's companies, have access to critical systems, which is a massive danger to national security protocols, according to experts like Bruce Schneier from Harvard University and Davi Ottenheimer from "Foreign Policy". The argumentation of finding savings options thanks to Musk's initiative "Doge" is worrying, because the procedure is also referred to as "the most serious violation of security in history".

political influence and cyber risk

The security situation is tightened by reports by former government employees of accusing Musk and his team that they have violated data protection laws. Musk's restructuring led to the exclusion of long -standing civil servants who had important security knowledge. According to Michael Daniel, a former cyber security coordinator in the White House, this negligence will be exploited by foreign secret services that are constantly waiting to penetrate the country's vulnerable computers. "If cyber security is not a top priority, you could make mistakes and weaknesses for attacks to be vulnerable in the long term," warns Eric O’Neill, an expert in cyber security.
