Ars Technica: In comedy of
errors, men accused of wiping gov databases turned to an AI tool
US DOJ: Two Virginia Men Arrested for Conspiring to Destroy
Government Databases.
The indictment:
- On February 18, 2025, at approximately 4:58 p.m.,
MUNEEB AKHTER issued commands that deleted a DHS production database
containing U.S. government information. The database was hosted on a Company-1 server in
the Eastern District of Virginia.
- On February 18, 2025, at approximately 4:59 p.m., MUNEEB AKHTER
asked an artificial intelligence tool, “how do i clear system logs from SQL servers after
deleting databases.”
- On February 18, 2025, at approximately 5:14 p.m., SOHAIB AKHTER
stated aloud, “They’re gonna probably raid this place,” to which MUNEEB
AKHTER replied, “I'll clean this shit up.” SOHAIB AKHTER
responded, “We also gotta clean stuff up from the other house, man.”
