NLRB Whistleblower Alleges Musk's DOGE Team Exfiltrated Sensitive Data
2025-04-22
A security architect at the National Labor Relations Board (NLRB) alleges that Elon Musk's Department of Government Efficiency (DOGE) employees transferred gigabytes of sensitive data from agency case files in early March using short-lived accounts designed to leave minimal network traces. The whistleblower, Daniel J. Berulis, claims this coincided with blocked login attempts from a Russian IP address using valid credentials for a newly created DOGE account. Berulis further reports receiving threats and being stripped of his NLRB access. While the NLRB denies a breach, Berulis's allegations raise serious concerns about DOGE's data access and NLRB security practices.
