AWS S3 leaks data from Fortune 100 firms
- xcyu 7y agoAttunity leaks data via S3. The title makes it sound like AWS is the one leaking data.
- social_quotient 7y agoThe title suggests that s3 itself was leaking objects outside of its design and intended controls. A real leak would be Bucket with same name leaked objects from other same names bucket... letting a customer get another customers data. I don’t see why s3 is anywhere in the article. It’s distracting and hints that someone the people in charge of this sensitive data should be off the hook for poor data stewardship. Maybe title should be “Provider left cloud object store unsecured and someone noticed. “
