The number of people whose #fingerprints have been stolen as a result of the high-profile hack into the computer systems of the U.S. Office of Personnel Management earlier this year is now 5.6 million.
The agency revised its original estimate of 1.1 million Wednesday after finding fingerprint data in archived records that had previously not been taken into account.
This does not change the overall number of 21.5 million former, current and prospective federal employees and contractors whose #social security numbers, personal information and background investigation records were exposed in the breach.
