More than 1,000 Twitter employees and contractors had access to the internal tool that was core to its giant hack
A huge number of Twitter employees and contractors were able to access the internal tool that was central to the huge hack that took place earlier in July.
The former employees familiar with Twitter security practices said that too many people could have done the same thing, more than 1,000 as of earlier in 2020, including some at contractors like Cognizant. Threats from insiders, especially lower-paid outside support staff, are a constant worry for companies serving large numbers of users, cyber security experts said. They said that the greater the number of people who can change key settings, the stronger oversight must be.
Although the public evidence tying the hacking to those was circumstantial, ultra-short Twitter handles were among the first to be hijacked.
