AP: The Department of Homeland Security said in a statement that data from the Office of Personnel Management and the Interior Department had been compromised. “The FBI is conducting an investigation to identify how and why this occurred,” the statement said.

One key question is whether intelligence agency employee information was stolen. Former government employees are affected as well.
