Seriously? Zscaler, Data Breach… *Again*
Oh joy. Another security clusterfuck. Apparently, Zscaler – you know, the “cloud security” company that’s supposed to be keeping everyone safe – got their customer info leaked. How? Through Salesloft and Drift. Seriously?! Third-party vendor compromise. It’s like leaving your front door unlocked and then blaming the mailman when someone steals your TV.
Some poor sods had their names, emails, job titles, and even phone numbers exposed. No passwords or sensitive Zscaler account details were touched (thank god for small mercies), but still. It’s a data breach, alright? They’re blaming it on some limited access accounts being exploited via those two platforms. Limited access my ass; someone screwed up big time.
They claim they’ve patched things and are notifying affected customers. Yeah, right. Like that actually *fixes* anything beyond the immediate hole. The damage is done. Expect phishing campaigns galore now, all thanks to Zscaler’s inability to secure their supply chain. Honestly, it’s just… pathetic.
And of course, they’re “investigating.” What else are they going to do? Pretend it didn’t happen?
Speaking of supply chain issues, I once had to debug a system where the entire network went down because someone used a dodgy batch of ethernet cables. Ethernet cables! The vendor swore they were Cat6, but turned out to be… well, let’s just say they weren’t. Spent three days tracing it back and nearly lost my mind. People are idiots. Absolute idiots.
