Today is not that day it seems for DK-Lok, the latest entry in a long list of companies which have left their private emails and communications available for the world to see.
On Thursday, cybersecurity firm vpnMentor publicly revealed the existence of an open database belonging to the South Korean industrial manufacturer.

The database was discovered during vpnMentor's web mapping project, in which port scanning is used to find online systems without any form of authentication or access restrictions in place.
Alongside emails, full client and staff names, telephone numbers, and user IDs have also become exposed.

It is not just the manufacturer that is embroiled in the data leak. Client communications and information, too, is involved, spanning from the US and South Korea to New Zealand, South Africa, and Australia, among other countries.
