In this post, we take look at what happened with the ChaosDB Azure Cosmos DB breach, what you need to know now, and what it means for cloud computing in general. The research company Wiz announced they had been able to access any Cosmos DB account on Azure in what they called ChaosDB.

Having this access, it was then simple to harvest all the primary keys, and then use those to log into any Cosmos DB account.

However, the question I’m interested in answering is what does this mean for cloud computing?

While the breach is serious, it really is, I’m kind of glad it happened in the cloud.
