Some of the world’s biggest companies have had 750GB worth of their innermost secrets revealed on unsecured Amazon S3 buckets, available for anybody to download – no password required.
The startling revelation came from researchers at UpGuard, who discovered three publicly accessible Amazon S3 buckets related to Attunity, a leading provider of data integration and big data management software solutions, on May 13th 2019.
The fact that Attunity is at the centre of the security breach is a concern, simply because of its impressive list of customers. On its website, the company boasts that it counts more than 2,000 enterprises and half the Fortune 100 in its customer base.
