In this case, they were looking specifically for dubstep music and stepping over anything else that they came across. Okay. So it was just you and Spintire that got access to this? Yeah. And you just kept it between you. Nobody shared it beyond that, right?

At this point, they've gained access to terabytes of data from these music managers, which was just too much to download at all. Their hard drives would fill up instantly, so they had to be selective of what they were grabbing. Like, I don't know what this is like to come across this, but I imagine you cancel your weekend plans.

And you're like, I got a whole bunch of cool stuff that just arrived in the mail, and I can't wait to dig in there and listen to stuff. Because you can't speed through listening to these things. You've got to really be like, wow, I'm going to let this one play the whole thing. Nobody else is hearing this but maybe four people in the world. And Diplo made it. Like, wow. Wow.

And while it wasn't meant for the public to see, there were gobs of people who did have access to this that worked for the management companies or even other musicians could see each other's files. It just goes to show if you're not protecting your own private data, nobody else will either.

Because the more people you have involved, the more back doors might be created. Because just think, if a music production company is going to use Dropbox to store all their work in progress, it sounds to me like they don't have an internal file storage system. And maybe no internal network at all. They probably need things like email, chat system.

They got to make social media graphics, a merch store, blog, social media accounts, newsletters, project management, and collaboration tools, and an internal knowledge base for Wiki. Chances are small businesses today are using public-facing websites for all these solutions and not self-hosting things on their own servers and their own data center.

So that means if 50 people work at this place, that's 50 accounts times however many services I just listed. What, 10? So we're talking 500 various logins to different websites now. Who's got permission to see what and where? Small businesses are not auditing these things, and it's an auditing nightmare even if they tried. No, this isn't an ad. I'm not going to try to give you a solution.

I just want to tell you about the problems that arise when you start using Cloud-based solutions, and there are a whole bunch of kids who are desperately trying to exploit those. So these kids had valid usernames and passwords to get into people's accounts, right? Okay, well, that's a problem to begin with, but whatever.

They were grabbing things, but they were also being smart at trying to establish persistence. If the owners of these accounts changed the passwords, they'd be locked out. So they created share links so that even if the account gets locked out, they could see what files are being uploaded later. Cool. but you can really take this to crazy levels. I'm talking about creating ghost logins.
