Microsoft’s Power Pages: A Leaky Data Disaster Waiting to Happen!
Misconfigured access controls in Microsoft’s Power Pages are exposing sensitive information to the public. Over 250 million users face potential data leaks, from NHS employee details to other sensitive info. Aaron Costello from AppOmni warns businesses to tighten these controls and avoid treating external users as insiders.
Hot Take:
When your website’s security is as nonchalant as a teenager’s diary lock, you might want to rethink your strategy. Or at least, don’t let Power Pages be the friend who blabs all your secrets to the world.
Key Points:
- Microsoft Power Pages misconfigurations expose sensitive data to the public.
- Over 250 million users are potentially affected by this oversight.
- NHS data was leaked due to the issue but has since been secured.
- Access control layers are complex, causing many organizations to misconfigure them.
- Microsoft issues warnings, but the real solution is better access management.
