The misconfigured Network Attached Storage was found by Hacken's cyber risk security team on October 17, and it was quickly quite evident that the leaked database was leaked online by Rice Consulting, a Democratic fundraising firm.

According to NAS' access logs found by Hacken, the leaked information was accessible since February 22, 2018, which allowed multiple actors from all over the world (e.g., South Korea, Turkey, and Thailand) to connect to the server and access the data for roughly eight months.

The worst part is that all the passwords found on the misconfigured NAS server were not encrypted and stored within an Excel spreadsheet document that would allow potential adversaries to steal all of it in a matter of seconds, without the need of specialized decryption or exfiltration tools.
