Employment & HRJob title, Department

Who is affected

  • Employees and contract employees
  • Seconded staff

Cause

In Microsoft Power BI, used for data visualization and analysis, permissions on several datasets were set so the whole group could view them instead of only staff who needed them

Timeline

  1. Discovered through a report from an employee
  2. Date of the Security NEXT report

Response

  • Access review
  • Config review
  • Notified individuals

What you should do

  1. Expect targeted phishing posing as HR or interview contacts
  2. Check the company's notice to see if you're affected

Lessons for companies

  1. Two-person review and pre-release tests for sharing and cache changes; monitor cloud config (CSPM)
  2. Report to the PPC: preliminary in 3–5 days, final in 30 (60 if malicious)
  3. Run red teaming and AI-assisted hardening, and publish how much you invest
