Press Release

Winter Springs, Fla., (April 28, 2025) - Matt Rose, Chief Experience Officer at Tech Rage IT, recently appeared on Fox35 Orlando to discuss a significant data breach involving WorkComposer, a workplace surveillance tool. The event has drawn considerable attention due to the exposure of 21 million images of employee activity, raising critical concerns about the security practices of third-party data handlers...

During his media appearance, Rose delved into the incident's details and wider implications:

Understanding the Data Breach: The breach occurred when sensitive employee images were left unsecured in an Amazon S3 bucket. Although initially discovered by a news organization rather than a malicious attacker, the incident highlights the vulnerability of third-party managed data.

Emphasizing Third-Party Security Risks: Rose emphasized the importance of evaluating and continuously monitoring the security measures of third-party vendors responsible for handling sensitive information. The breach underscores the necessity of rigorous security audits and protocols to prevent detrimental exposure of private data.

Insights on Data Security Best Practices: Drawing parallels with other high-profile breaches, Rose advised businesses to adopt comprehensive cybersecurity strategies, including encryption, thorough access management, and regular security training for employees and partners.

"As enterprises continue to rely on digital tools like WorkComposer for productivity monitoring, it becomes critically important to ensure that these tools adhere to the highest security standards," Matt Rose noted. "This incident is a wake-up call for companies to demand and implement robust data protection measures."
