Summary
The recently launched Department of Government Efficiency (DOGE) website, intended to present an official U.S. government initiative, has faced significant security concerns due to its vulnerability to edits by the public. Web developers discovered that the site could be altered by anyone, leading to instances where pranksters posted mocking messages about its security flaws. Further investigation revealed that the site is hosted on Cloudflare Pages, allowing third-party access to its database, which has raised alarms among federal employees about the potential mishandling of sensitive information. Although the site was initially sparse, it was quickly updated following a press conference by Elon Musk, where he emphasized transparency.
