Pentagon exposed some of its data on Amazon server

A researcher says the Pentagon exposed huge amounts of web-monitoring data in a security failure. Anyone with a free Amazon Web Services account could have looked at the hoard of information stored in the cloud by the U.S. Defense Department. The Defense Department secured the data by October 1 after researcher Chris Vickery alerted officials of the problem in mid-September. The posts are in multiple languages and originate from countries across the world, including the United States, the researcher says. There’s no indication that malicious attackers accessed the databases.”]
