To me it’s no surprise these things happen considering these companys only care about hiring leetcode experts.
Who knew data structure and algorithms doesn’t qualify you to build a secure real world web application?
Knowledge of practical things like security has zero value to these companies when hiring engineers.
- tschellenbach 8y agoWell if you hire enough people, and you're not 100% successful at selecting the good ones... Also even good people make mistakes at times. Almost impossible to prevent. The most actionable thing you can do is build less things, and focus on using of the shelve micro services (either in-house or third party) for everything
- therealdrag0 8y agoBut as someone else said, even though it maybe a common mistake (I've seen similar mistakes at my work), how is it that a number of those thousands of engineers didn't raise the alarm and get traction sooner on securing it? Companies need to incentivize engineers to not have a "not my problem" attitude.
