发帖数: 61690 | 1 Hackers have deleted a database of potential California voters with more
than 19 million entries, demanding around $3,500 to restore it.
Researchers at the security firm MacKeeper's Kromtech research group first
noticed the issue, but have not been able to identify the database's owner
to notify them.
"We decided to go public to let everyone who was affected know," said Bob
Diachenko, head of communications for Kromtech.
Kromtech primarily searches for misconfigured databases on cloud storage
accounts that accidentally reveal private information to the public. In
early December, they found a misconfigured database on an Amazon cloud
account containing what appeared to be information on 19 million Californian
citizens, including contact and mailing information as well as voting
precinct information. | i**********k
