When hackers broke into a database filled with the private information of U.S. security clearance holders, they likely got access to the names of foreign relatives of some of those officials who are living abroad. "It may be the single biggest breach of data that our government has ever had," said Chaffetz on teh C-SPAN Newsmakers program, calling the stolen data "the most sensitive information we have."
