An open database exposed at least 11 million photographs after the Theta360 photo sharing system run by Ricoh was breached.
“The data breach exposed thousands of users’ photos, many of whom chose to keep their images private,” according to a
blog post from vpnMonitor, whose researchers, Noam Rotem and Ran Locar, discovered the database. “The breach did not expose users’ most personal information, but in many cases, we located their usernames, first and last names, and the captions they wrote in the exposed database.”
