X Social Media an internet advertising company has exposed close to 150,000 records from a database that was left unsecured.
The database contained submissions as part of a lead-generation effort by X Social Media and was left unprotected and without a password, allowing anyone to look inside.
It contained names, addresses, phone numbers, the date and time of a person’s submission, and the circumstances and explanation of their accident, injury, or illness. Often this included personal health information and sensitive medical information.
The researchers said the exposed data could be “easily traced” back to the individuals who filled out the website forms.
