It has been reported that a contractor working for mobile giant Sprint stored hundreds of thousands of cell phone bills of AT&T, Verizon and T-Mobile subscribers on an unprotected cloud server. The AWS storage bucket had more than 261,300 documents, the vast majority of which were phone bills belonging to cell subscribers dating as far back as 2015. It was not protected with a password, allowing anyone to access the data inside. It’s not known how long the bucket was exposed.
