The presence of an open database belonging to the South Korean industrial manufacturer was publicly disclosed by the cybersecurity company vpnMentor.
vpnMentor's web mapping project, which uses port scanning to detect online services lacking any kind of authentication or access restrictions in place, led to the discovery of the database.
The company was disclosing emails about its business operations, goods, and clients, as well as product quotes, travel information, and private chats, all of which could be valuable to rivals.
Along with emails, user IDs, full customer and employee names, and phone numbers have also been made public.
