BREAKING: CISA Accidentally Leaks Its Own ‘How to Hack the Government’ Playbook on GitHub

In what cybersecurity experts are calling “the ultimate oopsie,” the Cybersecurity and Infrastructure Security Agency (CISA) has reportedly leaked sensitive data—not via a sophisticated nation-state attack, but by forgetting to check the “private” box on a GitHub repository.

The leak, which includes internal threat assessments, mapping tools, and what appears to be a step-by-step guide titled “So You Want to Secure the Grid? (Don’t Do This),” has been memed into oblivion. One commenter on the repo wrote: “CISA out here speedrunning their own job description.”

Ironically, the only thing more compromised than the data is CISA’s PR team, who are currently trying to reassure the public that “this was a controlled disclosure to test our own defenses.” Meanwhile, hackers are reportedly learning more from CISA’s mistakes than from their own training.

Update: The repo has been taken down, but not before someone forked it with the comment, “Thanks for the cheat codes, boss.”
