'Gay furry hackers' strike again, exposing more NATO data

A hacktivist group known as SiegedSec has claimed to have breached multiple NATO websites for the second time, stealing over 3,000 files and 9GB of data. The group, which identifies as "gay furry hackers," targeted various NATO portals, including the Joint Advanced Distributed Learning e-learning website and the NATO Lessons Learned Portal. This follows their previous intrusion in July, during which they leaked 845MB of data. The stolen data reportedly includes unclassified documents and 8,000 personnel records, potentially exposing sensitive information. NATO is currently investigating the incidents.
