The US financial regulator has confirmed a key security procedure on its X account had been suspended for six months when hackers made a fake post about Bitcoin in January.
The Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) did not have multi-factor authentication (MFA) in place when hackers gained access to the account.
"Once access was re-established, MFA remained disabled until staff re-enabled it after the account was compromised on January 9.
Because MFA had been suspended on the account, the hacker was able to reset the password, log in and make a post.
It announced the SEC had approved so-called exchange-traded funds (ETFs) for Bitcoin, which shot up in value to $48,000 (£37,800) before the post was withdrawn.
It takes many forms, including having a dedicated app that gives you a pin code for a website, as well as sending a text message, though this is considered less secure.

Unfortunately, always a risk in naval operations. I have a relative who used to do search-and-rescue with the Coast Guard, and the stories he tells about just how difficult it is to find a human being once they're in the drink is... harrowing.
My mind immediately goes to the idea that they’d have had some sort of high speed search and rescue nearby along with transponders and whatnot, which goes to show just how much more complicated it must be than movies and shit have made us believe.
I just want a little GPS thing with a balloon string. Once you get your head above water, pull the ripcord and a little radio just screams a pulse in the radio waves.
They gear these guys up with all the throwing knives but not a floatable transponder???
Two US Navy Seals who went missing during an operation to seize Iranian-made weapons - bound for Houthis in Yemen - are now presumed dead, the US military says.
“We mourn the loss of our two Naval Special Warfare warriors, and we will forever honour their sacrifice and example,” said the head of Central Command (Centcom), Gen Michael Erik Kurilla.
Navy Seals are members of a specialist maritime military force responsible for tasks including reconnaissance and carrying out covert operations.
Military officials told the Associated Press the first Seal was swept into heavy seas during the night mission as they were boarding an unflagged dhow - a traditional sailing ship - where the weapons were discovered.
The supply, sale and transfer of weapons to the Houthis is considered a violation of a 2015 United Nations Security Resolution, as well as international law.
Dozens of vessels have been targeted in the Houthi attacks, leading hundreds of cargo ships and tankers to be rerouted around the southern tip of Africa to avoid the strikes.

And now, an honest report on what god did. He looked down on his filthy sewage called "earth," and saw the slimeball that was trump leading the small-minded, the bigoted, the earnestly ignorant like a pied piper down a drain of utter filth and total corruption. And for this reason, he gave humans the incentive to start using nuclear bombs to wipe our filth off the face of the planet completely for eternity.
The Catholic Church has protected pedophiles among their ranks for as long as the Catholic Church has been around.
It is documented and undeniable that there have been such figures in the church, but it is my opinion that this specific pope has been trying to bring the church in a different direction, both on this specific issue, but also generally more progressive, if you want.
Yeah, a real leader among leaders.
Thanks for sharing this article, I’ve read it and tried to do more reaserch on the topic (turns out the wikipedia page on the matter is pretty dense and source-full, while the NYT wrote just has a couple lines written quickly). I will answer with this article from the guardian
“Despite recent measures to root out abuse by priests and increase transparency, some victims say the Vatican still has not gone far enough to protect children even in the West, where intense media coverage of paedophile priests has led to greater scrutiny of church practices.”
Francis has been in power for over a decade now, and that quote (from your link) was written years ago. Nothing has really changed.
I guess we’re all God’s pets children and He wants us to keep reproducing. Evolution is compatible with believing in God. Now why He put my g spot inaide my ass can only be proof of His immense sense of humour.
