The article is vague, but my guess is we are not talking about outside “hacking”, but back doors for criminal access to identity and financial data, deliberately integrated into the original code by CGI subcontractors in Belarus. Likely, the US taxpayers/lenders indirectly PAID them for the privilege. The whole massive software package cannot be trusted or redeemed without line by line review. This is potentially an enormous issue, yet a four-hour traffic snarl in NJ dominates the news.

Our able Congress (s/) needs to investigate security policies regarding who was allowed to author code for the website (and any related software the public doesn’t know about), how well this was policed, the identity of every software engineer involved, and the extent of CGI’s financial responsibility for the consequences.

Yes, there's no need to hack if you're already inside kicked back in the Lazy Boy and snacking on Cheetos. But, hey, out sourcing is a good thing, right? I mean, we outsourced our POTUS and look how that's worked out.
