Yet another NSA intel breach discovered on AWS. It’s time to worry..
Once again the US government displays a level of ineptitude that can only be described as ‘Equifaxian‘ in nature. An AWS bucket with 47 viewable files was found configured for “public access,” and containing Top Secret information the government designated too sensitive for our foreign allies to see.

The entire internet was given access to the bucket, owned by INSCOM (a military intelligence agency with oversight from the US Army and NSA), due to what’s probably just a good old-fashioned misconfiguration. Someone didn’t do their job properly, again, and the security of our nation was breached. Again.



Chris Vickery, the internet super sleuth who works for Upguard, found this breach the same way he found the Department of Defense one, and the one from Accenture, and countless others: with a regular web browser.
