A group calling itself 'Department of Peace' leaked 17 megabytes of internal DHS procurement files identifying 6,681 companies contracting with ICE and DHS on surveillance programs. The group cited federal killings of Minneapolis protesters as motive.
“A group calling itself 'Department of Peace' leaked 17 megabytes of internal DHS procurement files identifying 6,681 companies contracting with ICE and DHS on surveillance programs. The group cited federal killings of Minneapolis protesters as motive.”
The Department of Homeland Security does not publish a list of its surveillance contractors. A group called Department of Peace did it for them.
In April 2026, hacktivists released a 17-megabyte archive of internal DHS procurement documents. The files named 6,681 individual vendors with active contracts tied to ICE and DHS surveillance infrastructure. Among them: Palantir, Anduril, Raytheon, Microsoft, and Oracle. The contracts covered data aggregation, facial recognition, location tracking, and predictive enforcement tools.
The group issued a statement citing the federal killing of protesters in Minneapolis as the direct cause. They framed the leak as public accountability for a surveillance apparatus built on violence. Whether or not that framing holds, the underlying documents are procurement records — the kind of material that is technically public under FOIA but rarely assembled in one place.
DHS surveillance contracting is diffuse by design. Dozens of shell entities and subcontractors sit between a federal agency and its actual capabilities. The 17MB archive collapses that diffusion into a single searchable list. The companies named in it now have a paper trail that journalists, legislators, and courts can follow.
