About this leak

In early 2010 a significant data breach involving Hewlett-Packard customers occurred when a server was left unsecured. The incident exposed sensitive information of users who registered products or sought support services. The data was discovered by security researchers on an open server allowing unauthorized access to millions of records. The exposure was attributed to a misconfigured database rather than a direct cyberattack. HP took steps to secure the data once notified though the information had already been indexed by third parties.
