Texas engineering firm leaks Oracle, Dell data on Web

Texas electrical engineering operator #PowerQualityEngineering has exposed electrical infrastructure data compiled by its engineers on such companies as #DELLEMC , the City of Austin, #SBC, #Freescale, #Oracle and #TexasInstruments to public view on the Internet. The exposed data was found by UpGuard's security lead Chris Vickery on 6 July when he found an open port configured to accept packets at an IP address. Vickery heads the company's Cyber Risk Team. When this was entered into a command-line interface, a fully downloadable data repository from PQE came down the pipe. "Among the data that was exposed was the contents of one folder, Dell folder 6807, with a document labelled 'Director of Central Intelligence Directive No. 6/9' serving as a startling indicator of how sensitive the data entrusted to third-party vendors can be," UpGuard said in a blog post.
