Screeners are copies of unreleased films which are given to press for reviews by movie studios.
One such system is Awards-Screeners.com.
The site allows SAG-AFTRA members and other industry insiders to view the latest movies for reviews.
However,the website is vulnerable to hacking as per Vickery.
Cracking these passwords would take years of computational operations.
Vickery reminded the lawyer of his long history in exposing unsecured databases.
In later email exchanges, VMM told Vickery that most of the data he downloaded was actually test data.
Vickery says that VMM didnt yet reply to his last report.
So next time a screener is leaked online, you know who is to be blamed.
