In May 2019 Borkena relayed a Safety Detective report claiming that 142 agents at Ethiopia’s Information Network Security Agency had been exposed after using a predictable password.
INSA is the federal cyber and network-security body, so a password-hygiene failure story landed in the middle of the reform-era debate about how well state digital security was adapting.
Kept as cyber and tech archive, the report dates public concern that Ethiopia’s intelligence workforce could be compromised by basic credential mistakes.
