Veeam has blamed "human error" for the exposure of a marketing database containing millions of names and email addresses.

The unencrypted MongoDB resource was left open for anyone to view after a migration between different AWS systems, Peter McKay, co-CEO and president at Veeam, told The Register. The resource – which wasn't password-protected – was left open for 13 days between 28 August and 10 September.
