Somebody allowed that at AT&T.”</p><p>Let’s be clear - this wasn’t just a hack.<br>It was a breach of trust inside a mobile carrier.</p><p>This is why cybersecurity professionals are pushing for zero-trust models.<br>Because when one employee’s error can open the gates to your entire identity - your number, your bank, your crypto, your social profiles - it’s no longer just about strong passwords.
