Microsoft AI team accidentally leaks 38TB of private company data
It seems this isn't about customer data:
The exposed data included full backups of two employees' computers. These backups contained sensitive personal data, including passwords to Microsoft services, secret keys, and more than 30,000 internal Microsoft Teams messages from more than 350 Microsoft employees.
Some of that data could be from (or for) customer use, like the service passwords.
Who TF is keeping secret keys on their dev machine, that shit is toxic. Not to mention passwords
They probably mean like private ssh keys and developer credentials, not production keys. Microsoft does not give signing keys to developers, code releases have to get signed through the build servers.
What's the other 37.9TB?
The lax security is still worrying when they have so much data in general
The cloud is just somebody else's computer. You give up some control and get some convenience. I'm paranoid about their cloud services and cloud services in general.
On a local pc no less. They don't use password repos at Microsoft?
I worked for a cloud company that rhymes with frugal. They had sent a customers data into another customer’s environment. The customer who unknowingly received this data had to be locked out of their environment for a week until they were able to remove the other customers data.
I asked chat GPT and it couldn't understand which company you were talking about. I think you will be safe for now! 😏
Is it the big G? English is not my first language.
This exact scenario with links to cloud folders is also how the infowars lawyer leaked case related stuff to the prosecution lawyer for the sandyhook families
I have a feeling it's time to think of a better (or worse!) UI/UX to alleviate human error
Interesting, is that leaked on any forums? Been a while since I've searched for leaked databases but all my old go to forums got raided (understandably so)
Save yourself the PR nightmare that accompanies data breaches! Prevent all outside hacking forever by proactively dumping your data onto the internet yourself!
It's pure genius!
I hate it when I do that
Accidental goatse from Microsoft. That a good time.
