She worked at AWS while stealing data stored on AWS S3. Even if those buckets were publicly open, common Joe did not knew it nor their names.
Why would you consider it irrelevant?
- sva_ 4y agoIt seems like the breach happened after she left the company.

- dagw 4y agoShe worked at AWS while stealing data stored on AWS S3 According to the article she only worked at AWS for a year and hadn't worked there for 4 years before executing this attack. The only argument for relevance would be that she learned 'secret' knowledge about the internal workings of S3 that helped her execute the hack.
- hericium 4y agoMy bad.
- skeeter2020 4y agoI worked for the federal government for 6 weeks one summer when I was in school 20+ years ago. I guess that would make anything I do "state sponsored hacking"?
