> The attacker gained access to the server — which had been active for about a month — by exploiting an insecure remote management system left by the datacenter provider, which NordVPN said it was unaware that such a system existed.

This screams for clarification and I'd love for someone more knowledgeable in the area to elaborate on it. Is this common practice for data-center providers? Do I now not only have to worry about my own infrastructure security but also worry that my IaaS provider hasn't installed some backdoor to my servers?
