Crimson Collective Strikes: Red Hat’s GitHub Repositories Breached in Massive Data Heist
Crimson Collective claims to have breached Red Hat’s private GitHub repositories, snatching 570GB of data, including 28,000 projects. This heist is so big, it might need its own zip code! Red Hat confirmed the breach but not the group, proving even tech giants have security blunders that are hard to digest.

Hot Take:
In a twist of irony, the Crimson Collective appears to have gotten a little too “Red” handed with Red Hat’s private repositories. It’s like a digital game of Capture the Flag, except the flag is 570GB of sensitive data. Let’s hope Red Hat doesn’t need more than one hat to cover this cyber-scare!
