Microsoft leaked 2.4TB of data belonging to sensitive customer

> Microsoft posted its own disclosure on Wednesday that said the security company “greatly exaggerated the scope of this issue” because some of the exposed data included “duplicate information, with multiple references to the same emails, projects, and users.” Further using the word “issue” as a euphemism for “leak,” Microsoft also said: “The issue was caused by an unintentional misconfiguration on an endpoint that is not in use across the Microsoft ecosystem and was not the result of a security vulnerability.”

> Absent from the bare-bones, 440-word post were crucial details, such as a more detailed description of the data that was leaked or how many current or prospective customers Microsoft really believes were affected. Instead, the post chided SOCRadar for using numbers Microsoft disagreed with and for including a search engine people could use to determine if their data was in the exposed bucket.

Is MS really victim blaming and shaming the customer? Surely a bad way to do business, primarily because it damages and erodes customer confidence and trust. Shocking.
