...A separate tech expert, Darien Huss of the cybersecurity company Proofpoint, aptly noticed that the ransomware’s web address, which included a series of random numbers and letters, ended with “gwea.com.”...

The British security researcher, known online as MalwareTech, investigated and found out that the corrupted online address was still available to buy....

“I saw it [gwea.com] wasn’t registered and thought, ‘I think I’ll have that,'” MalwareTech told The Daily Beast, who purchased it on NameCheap.com, a domain name registrar service.

MalwareTech decided to direct the malware and infected computer systems toward a “sinkhole” server, which gives out false information and renders computers incapable of accessing the correct site.

Scoop on @ZDNet: US gov't firm subcontracted by Booz Allen has leaked confidential military personnel data: https://t.co/63RIhfEt7y pic.twitter.com/kAXxQqIdVs

A Pentagon subcontractor has exposed reams of highly sensitive details belonging to active military healthcare professionals online, some of which hold top-secret security clearances.

Potomac Healthcare Solutions, a subcontractor brought on board to supply healthcare professionals to the US government and military organizations through its parent Washington, DC.-based contractor Booz Allen Hamilton was the source of the data....

Many of those named in the leaked personnel files are linked to SOCOM's Preservation of the Force and Families (POTFF) program, a scheme that aims to ease the psychological and physical burdens often placed on military personnel and their families through unit-specific teams of healthcare professionals and counsellors.

The files include names of social workers, physical therapists, nurses and assistants, doctors, and psychologists, which alongside detail the states of their residency, pay scales, contract start and term dates, units and work locations.

The documents supplied by Vickery also revealed a "master tracking list" of POTFF personnel personal data and their security clearance levels.

Some of those possess "top secret" clearance, including access to sensitive compartmented information (TS/SCI) -- typically only granted to vetted staff who are then hired to work on sensitive special access programs.
