MarketsMojo

In March 2021 the Indian investment advisory platform MarketsMojo suffered a significant data exposure due to a misconfigured Amazon S3 bucket. This security lapse allowed unauthorized access to sensitive user information stored in the cloud. The breach impacted nearly half a million registered investors and included cryptographic bcrypt hashes of user passwords. The incident highlights the ongoing risks associated with improper cloud storage permissions and the potential for financial service data to be exploited for phishing or credential stuffing attacks.
