    I am not sure. This was mostly a case of human error in not properly securing urls/storage accounts. The lack of centralised control of SAS tokens that the article highlights was a contributing factor, but not the root cause, which was human error.

    If I leave my front door unlocked and someone walks in and robs my house, who is to blame? Me, for not locking the door? Or the house builder, for not providing a sensor so I can remotely check whether the door is locked?
