IBM and AT&T Accused of Covering Up Foreign Hacks

A whistleblower lawsuit alleges that IBM and AT&T concealed multiple breaches of IBM cloud infrastructure by foreign-linked hackers (including APT10), potentially exposing sensitive U.S. government and military data; the complaint claims large-scale account/system compromises, possible exfiltration (including data on 100,000 U.S. Navy personnel), missing access logs that impaired investigations, and internal pressure to downplay incidents to retain federal contracts.
