ET: The Awan IT Scandal Put Congressional Data at Risk

The emails and personal files of at least 44 House Democrats could have been stolen and transferred overseas by their own IT workers, in a scandal that has been quietly brewing in Congress.

At the center of the controversy are Imran Awan, his brother Abid Awan, and five other family members and associates.

They worked as shared IT employees for 44 House Democrats and had access to the House members’ sensitive data, including emails, calendars, constituents’ data, and personal files, despite having little to no IT experience.
