Comment on Cloud providers found to be leaking data cross-customer via dirty disks

Comments

A very interesting article about data leakage in cloud resource allocation. I'm impressed by the steps taken by all parties involved. Security vulnerabilities will continue to creep up over time as they do in most systems/services and the seriousness with which providers treat them is ever more important. What we have to remember is it's not just individuals hosting their own content that are at risk. More and more startups are utilizing cloud infrastructure which means we as consumers must be aware of where our personal data is going. I would love to see some sort of auditory process in place that verifies the security of cloud providers regularly and we as consumers having access to this information.
