If true, and there's not anything to indicate that's the issue, that's a characteristic of small business and huge corporations, and everyone in between.

Yes it is. Because there is no consequence to investors. There should be.


Mistakes arent random. Accidents arent random. There is no cosmic roll of the dice.
 
All of these companies sell credit monitoring services so it is in their best interest to "lose" your data, and then sell you their services
 
Crucify the board and CEO.

Hang the CIO.

Confiscate every cent of wealth and distribute it to every citizen impacted.

Their developers fucked up because of decisions made higher up.

Most likely, they didn't want to pay for proper training.

You can't just be a developer anymore, you have to develop with InfoSec in mind 100% of the time. Or have a security team take partin testing both in QA and sandbox environments.

Black Swans are real and pretty much shape the markets and the world.
 
Their stock is doing well. Their financials are good too. Healthy company. This happens to a lot of companies. Not everything is sinister. It may be incompetence but not sinister.

Is what I said untrue? He gave Israel 36 billion, meanwhile 43 percent of cancer patients go bankrupt in our own country. But I thought Trump stood for nationalism over globalism
 
I don’t think people truly understand the security realm of IT and the evolving exploitation vectors. This wasn’t because some greedy fat cat CEO cut corners

The url was manipulated it’s like when you get a link emailed to you to verify your email when you sign up for something and with that URL link you change characters in the string and it takes you to something else. It’s not like people could browse it on a site, it was technically hacked but they provided poor security with handling PII and obviously their coders did not have proper testing like fuzzing attacks

I think the real danger here, is that some organized cyber crime group has a army of bots looking for this, and many other similiar kinds of vulnerabilities.
 
showing results for 'First American IDOL'
search instead for 'First American IDOR'

my Google results have been hacked imo


Reading a bit more on this, it was just as easy for somebody to find these pages as it was to find pictures on an old Photobucket-type gallery where the URLs are like: /picture001, /picture002, etc. Woof.
