I hope there's an enormous fine for this kind of negligence
- nashashmi 2y agoNot their fault. Snowflake was breached. And the data was with Snowflake.
- jeff_tyrrill 2y agoYour contractor being breached means you were breached.
- hobs 2y agoSnowflake was "breached" by AT&T users using the same password in Snowflake and another system that was breached. This is just trivial pivoting done with some guesswork done fairly well.
- nijave 2y agoSnowflake wasn't breached. A Snowflake database belonging to AT&T was breached.
- nashashmi 2y agoYou are right apparently. > hundreds of Snowflake customer credentials ... of staffers who have access to their employer’s Snowflake environment ... credentials available online linked to Snowflake environments suggests an ongoing risk to customers who have not yet changed their passwords or enabled MFA.

- xyst 2y agoThe “fine” will consist of a class action lawsuit that will eventually (3-4 years later) be bargained down to 1/2 the original claim. Lawyers take their 25% (or whatever cut was negotiated) fee. Then the impacted customers (assuming they submitted all of the claim paperwork) get paid out a few dollars.
- panarky 2y agoThere may be no "good" telcos or big tech firms, but some are absolutely worse than others. AT&T is actively hostile in a way others aren't.
