Cybersecurity Chief’s AI Slip Sparks Federal Security Review
The acting director of Cybersecurity and Infrastructure Security Agency (CISA), Madhu Gottumukkala, is facing industry scrutiny after accidentally uploading government documents marked ‘For Official Use Only’, into a public version of ChatGPT, according to reports.
The documents appearance inside a public AI platform triggered internal security alerts and assessment by the Department of Homeland Security (DHS), which oversees CISA.
Irina Raicu, director, internet ethics warns, "Education about the privacy and cybersecurity implications of AI usage has been largely missing from the massive push toward AI adoption. And what this incident shows is that organizations and individuals don’t seem to learn from each others’ documented failures."
