The U.S. Department of Justice has filed a lawsuit against Georgia Tech University and an affiliated company, accusing them of failing to meet the cybersecurity standards required for Pentagon contracts. The lawsuit is part of the Civil Cyber Fraud Initiative, and it alleges that Georgia Tech has not enforced necessary cybersecurity regulations since at least 2019. This legal action follows a whistleblower suit brought by current and former members, highlighting the university's alleged non-compliance with Department of Defense cybersecurity requirements.
