Bangladesh thanked a security researcher for citizen data leak discoveryWhen a security researcher found that a Bangladeshi government website was leaking the personal information of its citizens, clearly something was amiss.
TechCrunch verified that the Bangladeshi government website was leaking data, but efforts to alert the government department were initially met with silence.
The data was so sensitive, TechCrunch could not say which government department was leaking the data, as this might expose the data further.
Florida’s Lee County took the heavy-handed (and self-owning) position of threatening the security researcher with Florida’s anti-hacking laws.
Several state CISOs and officials responsible for court records systems across the U.S. saw the disclosure as an opportunity to inspect their own court record systems for vulnerabilities.
