Defense contracting agency investigating possible breach

The federal agency responsible for managing the Defense Department’s (DOD) outside contracts is investigating a possible breach, security news blog KrebsOnSecurity reported.

As of Wednesday morning, the website for the Defense Contract Management Agency (DCMA) was down. A message posted to the homepage says, “Corrective Action in Progress.”

DCMA told KrebsOnSecurity that the page had been pulled after the agency discovered suspicious activity on its server Jan. 28.

In a statement, the agency said it so far had no information that any personal data had been breached from the DCMA or DOD servers.
