This happened quite sometime ago.
I received a client, reputable university in my country. After all the paper work was done, I was emailed access to one of their AWS server, FTP where the username and password were both admin. I didn't say much to them at that moment.. Maybe they had some precautions?
Over night I received another email, around 3am,
"Hi Uzair, we've monitored a breach while leaving FTP access open."
Well, that was sorta expected.
I received SFTP access to the server the following day,
username: admin,
password: @dmin
