US Immigration and Customs Enforcement is launching a new initiative designed to help protect its personnel from doxxing, but some agency officials are questioning whether they can trust the technology behind it. A confidential internal memo signed by Acting ICE Director David Venturella and leaked to The Intercept by ICE employees announced the agency's 'Doxing Mitigation Initiative,' which involves cybersecurity company ZeroFox and is intended to help safeguard ICE personnel and their families.
The initiative comes alongside a reported $15M Department of Homeland Security contract with ZeroFox for software licenses supporting ICE operations and investigations.
