The news was confirmed by the Under the Breach twitter account, a data breach monitoring and prevention service: Despite the size of the hack, it is unlikely that many secrets will have been leaked. Microsoft’s repositories on GitHub are frequently intended for public availability, even when private, and Microsoft performs stringent checks and scans of uploaded code to manage exactly this scenario. Reportedly Microsoft keeps their crown jewels, Windows, in a massive internal 300 GB Git repository.

Wait a minute. It seems related to what I post earlier: On 5/7/2020 at 5:39 PM, zanderthunder said: According to a recent report by cybersecurity research collective Under the Breach, an as-yet-unidentified party managed to hack into the tech company’s database in March, gaining access to the records of more than 15 million Tokopedia users in the process.
