Amidst reports that an exposed web server storing résumés of job seekers — including from recruitment site Monster — has been found online. The relative numbers are small compared to other breaches, but Monster.com is a known consumer-facing brand.
The server contained résumés and CVs for job applicants spanning between 2014 and 2017, many of which included private information like phone numbers and home addresses, but also email addresses and a person’s prior work experience. Of the documents we reviewed, most users were located in the United States.
