Rainwalk Pet Insurance Exposes 158 GB of US Customer and Pet Data

**Rainwalk Pet data exposure:** A misconfigured, unencrypted Rainwalk Pet database was found publicly accessible, exposing roughly 158 GB across ~85,361 files containing customer PII (names, addresses, phone numbers, emails, partial credit card numbers), pet details (breeds, medical history, microchip numbers) and claim documents; it remained accessible for almost a month before being secured. While no confirmed malicious access has been reported, the leak poses notable privacy and financial risks — including fraudulent insurance claims, payment interception via refund channels like Venmo, and targeted scams — and researchers recommend encryption and stricter access controls.
