NTS Exposing Private Data

[depthcharge]

Hello to All PG Members!

I don't know if there is a thread on this topic already but as far as I know there isn't. Okay, so coming back to the topic: I just heard a couple of days ago that NTS has exposed all its applicants' data and it might be a bug but still this is unacceptable as the data that has been leaked contains all the details of a person! From their CNIC number to their address! Even passwords! For people who use same passwords on all their accounts (social media + email) are at a higher risk. Someone needs to take an action against these people because an organisation like NTS - which charges huge FEES for all their tests - should be able to take care of their site's security. They just made the lives of hackers and stalkers easier. Many people have even downloaded all the records. What do you all think can be done, now?
Would like to hear everyone's opinion on the matter.

Can we actually sue these f*ckers for such a mishap?

POS incompetent bastards, testing the competence of others. The irony :fp2:

I so wish we could! but considering how our system of law is, I doubt anything significant would be done. I guess there is a chance if someone from the government or some big assed reporter or someone gets involved and drags their asses all the way to the top of minar e Pakistan but other than that I find it hopeless.
On a different note, was this on news channels or not? I don't watch TV much so asking you guys. It would be shocking to hear it wasn't. It so should be. I guess many people are still unaware that this has happened.

Can someone please post source of this news. I've applied to around 5 posts via NTS in the last 4 months or so.

You wouldn't be asking for the source if you knew how to extract the exposed data, lol. It's true so the source doesn't matter. I was able to extract data easily so there is a hole in their system.

I took their test last year, I guess all my info is out there too now. :/

If they still haven't fixed it, it definitely is out there [emoji21]
