### Scenario #1

### Scenario #2
16+
17+
To target a specific service, an attacker searches the API hostname on a popular
18+
search engine of computers directly accessible from the Internet. A popular
19+
database management system was running in such host, listening on the default
20+
port. Because the default configuration has authentication disabled by default
21+
and it was kept unchanged the attacker had access to millions of records with
22+
PII, personal preferences and authentication data.
