Apple among 90+ companies to have corporate data exposed through their Box accounts

Apple is one of a number of high-profile companies which had corporate data exposed through their Box accounts, an enterprise cloud storage service.
In all, cybersecurity firm Adversis found that data from more than 90 companies was exposed …

TechCrunch reports that the issue arose due to a weakness with the public link feature offered by Box.

[...] Although data stored in Box enterprise accounts is private by default, users can share files and folders with anyone, making data publicly accessible with a single link. But Adversis said these secret links can be discovered by others.
Adversis wrote in a blog post that the privacy problem existed on a massive scale.
Box said that it is taking action.

[...] We are taking steps to make these settings more clear, better help users understand how their files or folders can be shared, and reduce the potential for content to be shared unintentionally, including both improving admin policies and introducing additional controls for shared links.”

This really shows, that you can't rely on these cloud services. How can they make such blunders?
