Confidential information of an American management consulting Firm, Left Unprotected

Cyble has also removed the description and the details of the data leak on this post (as published on 06/25) in order to limit the interest of other cyber criminals looking out for such information in the darkweb.

Update as of 06/25/2020: During our regular darkweb monitoring, Cyble researchers identified an actor selling access to a dump allegedly from an open Amazon S3 bucket link (according to the actor). After acquiring and further analysis, we noticed that it had a bunch of folders containing confidential data of a renowned management consulting firm based in the USA.
