A substantial data leak at Sydney Tools left an unsecured database online, exposing sensitive data of employees and customers. Over 5,000 employee records including names, employment branches, salaries, and sales targets were leaked, suggesting a risk of phishing or identity theft. Furthermore, over 34 million purchase records potentially compromised customers' names, contact information, and purchase details. This breach threatens the privacy of millions and underscores the danger of unprotected databases in today's digital landscape.
