DeepSeek AI Database Security Breach Exposes Sensitive Data
/ 1 min read
🔐 DeepSeek AI faces security breach as sensitive data exposed. The Chinese AI startup DeepSeek recently left a ClickHouse database exposed online, potentially allowing unauthorized access to sensitive information, including chat histories and API secrets. Security researchers noted that the exposure enabled complete control over database operations without authentication. Although DeepSeek has since secured the database, concerns remain about the rapid adoption of AI technologies without adequate security measures. The company, which has gained popularity for its innovative AI models, is also under scrutiny regarding its data privacy practices and potential misuse of OpenAI’s API for training its models. Additionally, its apps have been withdrawn in Italy following inquiries from data protection regulators.
