The agency says that a small amount of personal data about USDA employees may have been exposed in the incident. Other federal government agencies including The US Office of Personnel Management (OPM) and arms of The Department of Energy (DoE), Oak Ridge Associated Universities research center and its Waste Isolation Pilot Plant in New Mexico have also been identified as federal agency or agency adjoined victims.
