It has been reported that Sonic Jobs, a UK retail and restaurant jobs app used by the Marriott and InterContinental hotel chains, has exposed over 29,000 CVs online revealing job-hunters’ names, addresses, phone numbers and career histories to potential cyber criminals. The firm made the settings on their cloud storage buckets public, which meant that when someone applied for a job their CV was available for anyone who knew the location of the bucket to see and download it.
