It's weird how, despite the feds being the ones who push security requirements onto the states, the states often have better security in place than the people making the rules...wtf
First of all, I'm not buying that states have better security. But, most of all I'd say that the US government have much larger networks with much more important data. Which is what the hackers want.
They were breached via a compromised security vendor
And why would that security vendor have access to actual documents? Opsec failed.
They didn't. They had access to workstations which were then compromised in turn.
