US Customs Workers’ App Fiasco: Unleashing a Digital Trojan Horse or Just Innocent Fun?
When it comes to “Government Mobile Device Security,” our US customs workers have turned their work phones into a cyber-criminals’ playground. From installing banned apps to turning a blind eye towards known vulnerabilities, it’s like they’ve signed up to play ‘Who Can Be the Biggest Security Risk.’ Step right up, folks!
Hot Take:

These folks have gone from protecting the homeland to installing "look at me, I'm a security risk" apps on their work phones. As if our current cybersecurity situation wasn't spicy enough, they've managed to turn their devices into digital Swiss cheese, full of potential for malware and spyware. The Inspector General must feel like a babysitter trying to keep a bunch of unruly toddlers from drawing on the walls with permanent markers. But hey, at least the audit has given us a laundry list of things to fix. Let's hope it's not too late.Already a member? Log in here
