Vale é hackeada e documentos mostram como empresa lida com acidentes (Vale is hacked; documents show how company handles accidents)

Posted on January 31, 2019 by Dissent

The following is a Google translation of a news report by Felipe Payao:

The Brazilian multinational mining company Vale was invaded and supposedly confidential internal documents were withdrawn and leaked by invaders. Hackers would have taken advantage of an open software toolbox for team collaboration to retrieve minutes and extract security incidents and incidents around the world. This type of extraction is characterized as Google Hacking.

TecMundo received the documents on Tuesday (29) from an anonymous source. There are about 40 thousand files in a 500 MB folder. From there, it is possible to find security incidents that occurred between 2017 and 2019 in areas of Vale in Brazil, Canada, Mozambique, New Caledonia and Indonesia.
