A major US cargo logistics company recently discovered that critical shipping infrastructure and sensitive customer information were left exposed on the open internet. The company's systems, which handle shipment tracking and client data, lacked proper access controls and were accessible without authentication. This incident serves as another stark reminder of how even established tech companies can face serious security oversights. For anyone managing digital assets or operating in the Web3 space, such breaches underscore the importance of robust security audits, regular penetration testing, and zero-trust architecture principles.
