Sensitive DeepSeek data exposed to web, cyber firm says, IT Security News, ET CISO

Sensitive DeepSeek data exposed to web, cyber firm says, IT Security News, ET CISO

New York-based cybersecurity firm Wiz says it has found a trove of sensitive data from the Chinese artificial intelligence startup DeepSeek inadvertently exposed to the open internet.

In a blog post published Wednesday, Wiz said that scans of DeepSeek’s infrastructure showed that the company had accidentally left more than a million lines of data available unsecured. Those included digital software keys and chat logs that appeared to capture prompts being sent from users to the company’s free AI assistant.

Wiz’s chief technology officer said DeepSeek quickly secured the data after his firm alerted them.

“They took it down in less than an hour,” Ami Luttwak said. “But this was so simple to find we believe we’re not the only ones who found it.”

DeepSeek did not immediately return a message seeking comment.

DeepSeek’s practically overnight success following the launch of its AI assistant has thrilled China and sparked anxiety in America. The Chinese company’s apparent ability to match OpenAI’s capabilities at a much lower cost has posed questions over the sustainability of the business models and profit margins of U.S. AI giants such as Nvidia and Microsoft.

By Monday, it had overtaken U.S. rival ChatGPT in downloads from Apple’s App Store, triggering a global selloff in tech shares.

What is Firewall? A Firewall is a network security device that monitors and filters incoming and outgoing network traffic based on an organization's previously established security policies. At its most basic, a firewall is essentially the barrier that sits between a private internal network and the public Internet.

 

Secure your network at the gateway against threats such as intrusions, Viruses, Spyware, Worms, Trojans, Adware, Keyloggers, Malicious Mobile Code (MMC), and other dangerous applications for total protection in a convenient, affordable subscription-based service. Modern threats like web-based malware attacks, targeted attacks, application-layer attacks, and more have had a significantly negative effect on the threat landscape. In fact, more than 80% of all new malware and intrusion attempts are exploiting weaknesses in applications, as opposed to weaknesses in networking components and services. Stateful firewalls with simple packet filtering capabilities were efficient blocking unwanted applications as most applications met the port-protocol expectations. Administrators could promptly prevent an unsafe application from being accessed by users by blocking the associated ports and protocols.
