Here's how security experts think hackers hijacked the Twitter accounts of Jeff Bezos, Elon Musk, Barack Obama, and many others

that hackers may have accessed internal tools, but appeared to dispute that an employe was bribed:

"It looks like the way this was done was by using the tools inside Twitter to reset contact details and then trigger password resets," Alan Woodward, a cybersecurity expert at the University of Surrey, told Business Insider. "If you allow such tools to exist then the only way to stop them being misused by an individual is to have a process in place to make sure you need two people internally to make it function," he said.

End-to-end encryption is used by messaging apps like WhatsApp and Signal, and ensures that no one other than the sender and recipient can read a message. As Woodward noted, Twitter does not use end-to-end encryption for direct messages.
