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.

    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.

    Some of that data could be from (or for) customer use, like the service passwords.

    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’m pretty sure 20 TB of that is just “put books on *insert thing”

    If it’s a root CA private signing key, 2KB could be fatal. If it’s tiktoks, 100TB could be worthless.

      And if it’s porn? Priceless.

  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

  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!

  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)

    Are you planning to download 38TB data?

      If it was only available as one big zip, I would try to work something out. I really want a peak at the transformers folder.

      I’d imagine the bulk of it is the training bucket, the interesting stuff should be way less
