Top Next-Gen Security Firm Leaking Terabytes of Customer Data

Posted on August 9, 2017 by Dissent

Update2:  Brian Krebs has a great post criticizing those who reported on DirectDefense’s claims without waiting for a response from Cb. Sadly, this site is also guilty of that by just citing and linking to others’ reporting without doing any verification.

Original Post:

From the this-can’t-be-good dept., Catalin Cimpanu reports:

Sensitive corporate data from customers protected by Carbon Black endpoint detection and response (EDR) solutions has been found on multiscanner services, according to an investigation by DirectDefense, a provider of managed security strategies.

The shocking data leak has been tied to an API key which DirectDefense claims it belongs to Carbon Black Cb Response, a next-gen anti-malware EDR product.
