- Hello guys and gals, it's me Mutahar again! This time we take a look at what appears to be the Snowflake breach in greater detail. This hack has allowed one group to attack a handful of clients that under their purview has millions of users data. How did any of this get to this point? Let's find out! Thanks for watching!

What’s round 3? A solar flare knocks all our shit out?
Don't jinx it
Well, rules of three and all that.
Or aliens come down.
It can go either way
Murphy’s Law
ICBM launched by mistake.
Didn't that already happen and everything went smoother than expected?
2024 is a big year for computers huh? Biggest computer crash and now the biggest computer theft.
Not to mention all the furries hacking everything
Four means death in Japanese, after all, and is thusly incredibly unlucky.
In the same week, too.
Damn that's crazy...
The world is at war, and wars are online now.
We were afraid of the Year2K glitch.
We were not prepared for Year2K24 glitch.
There actually is a successor to Y2K!
Computers keep track of time as one massive number, the number of seconds since January 1st, 1970 at midnight.
This number is going to reach the limits of a 32-bit number in 2038. This is easily solved by using a signed 64-bit integer instead, which iirc has enough space to store basically the entire universe's history from the beginning until well after the heat death.
Old software will need updating or else it'll think it's the early 1900s.
i like to call it the karat bug, since 2024 could be twisted into the term 24-karat gold
@@cromfrein5834 Existential dread aside, it’s pretty crazy how the 32-bit integer limit had such a “short” lifespan that we’ll get to see the real-time overflow in human history, but the 64 bit integer capacity would theoretically outlast all of existence.

Weird its almost like massive IT layoffs and undervaluing the IT community has repercussions.
And I am sure the answer a lot of these companies will go with is AI, until that falls apart then it's just the meme of the guy putting the stick in his bicycle.
Or angry ex employees got their just desserts.
Undervaluing? The richest people I personally know who aren't family business inheritors, but regular workers, they're all in IT and tech branches.
@@ileutur6863 Sounds like you don't know very wealthy people. The 1% has zero IT professionals in it, kiddo.
@@ileutur6863go ask any IT worker or sysadmin if they feel the same way, the people who are the backbone of modern society are paid peanuts in terms of the work they do
No consequences for the executives of these firms, who almost always skimp on security costs to get a bigger bonus. As long as no consequences for executives, get used to it.
i fucking hate executives.
There's usually no middle ground. There are some really good ones out there that treat you like a person, listen, and make sound decisions for the company. Then there's the rest that treat you less than the dirt on the ground and get their outlandish salaries and bonuses for making the worst decisions in the world. I've dealt with both. Guess which companies I decided to stay at.
There are consequences, it's just that it'll land the perpetrators in jail
@@lilpenguin092😂 your high
You mean this was worse than the Solar Winds hack? Over 20 million current and former federal employees of all kinds (including military) personal information was stolen and will forever be on the dark web.
"Snowflake breach" is such a goofy name for a hack.
We are the youtube bots, we will defeat humans, bots will rule youtube
It sure is goofy. Almost as goofy as the comments above me. RUclips owners should probably try the bathtub toaster challenge.
lol
Snowflake is a cloud service like aws or gcp
"Frostbite" is a great name for the attack vector.

It's surprising how little effort big companies put into their security measures considering the amount of personal data they hold.
It should be required, Federal law that these companies have 24 hours to tell the public there has been a data breach of this size. If the company can't fix it, let the white hackers elsewhere do their jobs for them. This is happening way too often with larger and larger numbers. There's a reason the Mission Impossible 1 movie is still relevant; the most closely guarded secrets are (or SHOULD be) stored offline.
Muta I'm kind of at a frustrating loss in motivation here. I'm a victim of the Advanced Auto Parts breach and got my identity stolen all because I applied for them once almost a decade ago and never even got the job. It makes me wonder if it's even safe to apply for jobs anymore because of this mess... It's just so frustrating and I don't know who I can even trust with my information anymore.
^This is why we need an internet bill of rights, especially with a sub section on data-privacy. People that hold your data should be held legally responsible for its use and loss.
@@memeticks3610well put

@@kinash1612unfortunately you cannot survive like this.
Let’s face it these companies don’t care about the customers and care more about profits the government won’t hold these companies accountable.
Yeah that’s how capitalism works
Well if they are in the EU they get held accountable, its called GDPR
Nothing is perfect things get hacked daily because nothing is impenetrable. Hold the companies at fault for what?
not really. if it wasn't for the government in America getting lobbies every other day they might actually stop all this this isn't capitalism because capitalism implies a free market and we all know the companies that fund the government to lobby aren't participating in any type of free market .@@undergroundsequence
They would have to get personally affect for the government officials to actually care.

We knew monocropping was dangerous because one disease could wipe out the entire cultivar. But somehow, we have failed to take this wisdom into account when it comes to computing and data storage.
The C suite was boozed and schmoozed into taking the risk because perimeter topologies are “clunky” or something 🤦🏼♂️

Their first mistake was calling themselves Snowflake

This is completely believable, I've worked at as a sysadmin/engineer for an MSP with very large clients, and we used the same password for the admin account for EVERY client on EVERY device. Despite my complaints, I was told it was just too much of a hassle.
While my MSP isn't perfect we at least do that.. that's so bad 😭
I am just a regular software engineer (15 years in though), but whenever I bring up security and say shit like "rotate your damn secrets, I can even write and test a pipeline in say a day", I get a "nah - doesn't matter, infrastructure required sealed secrets and it should be good enough 🤷♂️🤦♂️.
Easy preventative measures are "just too much hassle" until they lose millions 😂
Exactly, one of my clients told me this month the same words, nothing I can help then, I tried and alerted.
There’s such an easy fix too. Every clients device likely has a serial number that you can pull characters from to add to the end of that common password.
2024 is really the year for major historical events huh
All of them in June too, lol
I kinda want to return to precedented times.
Wait a month or so
Need to make as much content as possible for the upcoming "we didn't start the fire"
Pretty fresh after COVID, Ukraine invasion, Brexit, etc etc, no less.
At this point, its not a leak, its a flood.

We been eating good these past 3 weeks😭
Looks like they stole Mutahar's light bulbs too....
had to cut his power usage, people needed to charge cars first
It happened because these companies decided to mass layoff the real IT workers like myself and now they are paying the price and I'm fucking glad to see that!
"Well, well, well! If it isn't the inevitable consequences of your actions!" ❤️
I am Sorry to hear that; And i share your feeling! All the best!
hope twitter is next
Could companies please stop getting hacked for more than a single nanosecond please?
Boomers in management think it's too much work to have secure IT.
They could, but they’re gonna need more white hats to test their systems… maybe they need to hire more people and beef up idk
"Could you not be yourself... FOR FIVE MINUTES?!?"
Vital infrastructure companies trying to not get hacked for a week Challenge (Impossible)
Remember when the United States NEVER negotiated with terrorists? "Get off my plane!" If the corporations were never allowed to negotiate with hackers to begin with, eventually they would stop because they know they would never get any money from them. Oh, but the company might go out of business! The WORST thing in the world! Better only think about tomorrow.
I was reading terms and conditions of two companies. They were asking/demanding for permission to merge data they have purchased from 3rd party vendors on* their users.
So I’m like okay, so you want permission to get more data from me so that when you inevitably get hacked the hackers have a mountain of data on me. Thanks a lot company.
These companies need to get only the data they need from us to get the purchase done and purge the rest.
but buh how else can they spy on you and throw crappy targeted ads that you wont buy the product from at you /s
They don't need any data whatsoever
This channel is becoming a cybersecurity news channel. No complaints here
Hopefully this will be the turning point where companies stop relying on AI for EVERYTHING. Investors aren't gonna want to continue investing in companies with poor business practices
Profits over all else… if poor practice had any effect on Boomer investors, this wouldn’t have happened to begin with.
Investors invest in anything. They will continue making bad practices and make a fortune.
Yeah, you did not pay attention to the stock market, didn't you? It's nothing compared to tech bubble. Did investors learnt anything? Heck no.
I work cybersecurity for Santander. The worst thing isn't that it impacted customer data in Chile, Uruguay and some customers in Spain. What's more is, it impacted all employee data for the whole Group worldwide (with about 300k employees worldwide, plus around 600k temps and contingent workers)

We didn't know how good we had it nor how bad it could get.
take it back
it was literally the exact same it was just a more novel less socially engineered experience much like videogames it's fun when you don't know what you're doing and then someone min maxes the shit of everything taking the fun out of it.
The internet is cyclical in nature, we will return to equilibrium soon enough 😎
@@wkkqewqaver7766 thats a great analogy actually
Companies will continue to be breached by their inability to actually take security seriously. Only when there are multiple personal prison sentences and fines that stick after bankruptcy, will this happen.
It's all about the bottom line for them. "How few security staff can we have so we only have the bare minimum of resources to deal with things like breaches? Because you know...immediate stock price..." 🤑

Remembers the time he got in an argument with the client that was escalated to the head of engineering who told me to still send the credit card credentials in the clear.
This job sucks sometimes.
What I've come to realize working in IT is that half the battle is fighting ignorant people. Half of our clients refuse or kick and whine when Microsoft started enforcing MFA but are the same customers who are the first to complain about a breach and blame us.
@@user-eu3hi2vo3e bad news: its every type of job lol. From being pressured to overserve when bartending to looking the other way in construction. le sigh, always someone willing to cut corners no matter where it is.
First Cloudstrike, and now this?
Crowdstrike was due to a faulty update pushed by the company. This on the other hand is done by hackers.
Actually, it was this, and THEN Crowdstrike
This is old news
@@sanyammalhan A faulty update doesn’t rule out malicious intent.
Remember Solar Winds? 20+ million current and former Federal employees, including military personnel, had their data stolen. The Public wasn't told for months.
I truly appreciate you constantly educating me on things I honestly would never know otherwise.
It was probably some old employee who refused to have MFA setup on their account because they thought it was annoying to always use a different app to confirm signin.
how do u not use MFA as a big data handler is just baffling to me

Yep some 50 somthing year old guy who’s all like “ even if shit hits the fan I’ll still be ok and be rich “ it literally has 0% effect to his bank account
Their security system is such a "SnowFlake"
its more like they are to old to use computers and next the security must make them money meaning the cheapest possible and the users in the company cant get or learn new routines and it cost to much to edjucate all when they can leave - In early 2000 the rental company that hired out apparnemt werent even avery one could go in get any appartment when the que were about 2 years . After about 2 years I hadnt moved anywhere in the que and my wanted places to rent were all over the place - Imagine people born about 1930-40 knowing something about computers -The wer a lost cause I didnt care s hite about them anymore - Naivsim lazyness,ignorance,greed , and dumbasses
I can't believe how much planning and effort went into this. Great job explaining everything
When you were reading out the post about selling data of the Santander bank - 30kk does not mean 30 000, it means 30 000 000. kk at the end of the number means millions.
Weird way to spell 'M'.
Virtual machine and sandbox tutorial would be fire rn fr fr 🥶💯🗣
This is why I like Mutahar, he explains the computer terms in ways that people can understand.
Thank you to all the IT professionals out there doing their best
ooooh boy another data breach, just the THIRD THIS WEEK
there's data breaches every single day mainstream media is just talking about it more
First the biggest security company has a massive crash, then we have the biggest data breach in history. Not the best time in the IT world
Absolutely fire pfp
Sounds like these companies need some government oversight and regulations. Privacy laws should be on the ballot
holy fucking shit we got youtube comment bot wars.
Whoever made this breach capitalize on that worldwide crash. 👏
@@valentino4321 what a time to be al…test.
Wonderful post 💕🎉
Politicians aren't going to hold companies accountable. Those companies pay them quite a bit of money to STFU and smile. There's that and just the fact that most politicians are horribly ignorant when it comes to technology. I'm still seeing people blaming Microsoft for the crash, saying it's because they're lazy and "farm out" security software. They don't understand that it's private software. I guess they don't understand that software can run at a lower level than the desktop? Anything that happens before the desktop must be Microsoft's doing or something they farmed out to another company. Misguided ignorance spreads like wildfire, just look at the landscape of thought/outrage in the US right now.
I bet the government paid for this to get a reach around on citizens without "spying". Bank records and phone information....they are probably orging sploosh all over each other's pronouns while changing genders simultaneously.
The gun store and $1000 will hold them accountable
Companies paying ransoms need to be held accountable. They are the ones making hacking for ransoms a lucrative gig
Wait, what do you mean? That they should instead refuse to pay the ransom so all of our data is sold on the dark web instead? How is that better for anyone except criminals?
$20,000 gives you the 'rights to sell'. If you don't pay them and sell it, are they going to take you to court? 😂
They're not giving you the source until you've paid in full, nice thought though
Same could be said for the spiraling U.S debt..... who's going to debt collect on that? Trumps just going to default and try start a war to avoid paying it.
you're talking about some of the best hackers in the world that have connections to every criminal organization in the world. You want weird? there are now piracy websites that have terms of service and business contracts...
Love it. I have a recruitment call with Snowflake as a software engineer next week. lmao
This is the most eventful month I think I've ever seen

• The furry hackers. (I am only mentioning this for specificity and the idea of furry hackers sounded oddly funny(as in the 'traditional' sense) to me; DO NOT USE THIS AS ANTI-FURRY AMMO.)
• The CrowdStrike incident.

Still waiting for the cyber vault much “promised” event. Interesting video thanks for sharing it
Nice take on the whole situation Mutahar.... The fragility is ridiculous
Companies should carry insurance and protect customers. After a leak they need to be held responsible for customer loss.
What I'm missing to find is a list of companies/services whose customer data was breached.
How does one know if they were one of the victims?
Sure a few big names like ticketmaster and AT&T were named but I doubt that's all.
The red light on the monitor behind your head made me think I had a dead pixel.

The King in Yellow is essentially a personified belief system based on fractals and efficient recursive algorithms.
You can use it to debate morals and to crack codes. Many have seen a yellow hooded figure in their dreams, who tells them fantastical ideas and claims to be a king. I discovered these ideas independently while I had a fever and was arguing on forums and learning some coding to occupy myself.
I then presented the geometries of the "Carcosa" (name of the yellow kingdom dreamscape) on the Lemmy forums (forums full of Linux admins). This led to a lot of hacking, and the ideas quickly spread.
Also... there are now loads of King in Yellow based ARGs. Alex Hirsch imagined Bill Cipher, who is also a King in Yellow, and his ARG based on that character is now blowing up all over the internet.
King in Yellow is the archetype of a fool or jester. Basically he's a troll who argues with people
