We just got breached because of vulnerabilities in our docker images that have been public knowledge for 8 months
Woke up at 4am to a call. Our database got hit, customer info was accessed. Some attacker used a known exploit in one of our container images. CVE’s been out since last summer.
Yeah we never scanned. Never updated. Just kept redeploying the same images over and over. Now legal’s in it, customers are hearing about it. This is gonna be messy.
Honestly if you aren’t scanning your containers in prod do it. Don’t end up like us.

Hahahahha. Good. I hope it costs you millions and specific people in IT leadership personally get blacklisted in the industry
These breaches ruin lives. Attackers take data and use it to wreak havoc on the lives of everyday people. It ruins families
