Last night, leading Indian lab testing company Dr. Lal PathLabs was caught exposing confidential patient data through an unprotected storage bucket on Amazon Web Services. The open database had records (basic details, test information) of millions of Indians who had taken lab tests, including those for COVID-19, at PathLabs but was taken down after alarm was raised over the issue.
