Part of me thought "this is fine as very few could actually download 38TB".
But that's not true as it's just so cheap to spin up a machine and some storage on a Cloud provider and deal with it later.
It's also not true as I've got a 1Gbps internet connection and 112TB usable in my local NAS.
All of a sudden (over a decade) all the numbers got big and massive data exfiltration just looks to be trivial.
I mean, obviously that's the sales pitch... you need this vendor's monitoring and security, but that's not a bad sales pitch as you need to be able to imagine and think of the risk to monitor for it and most engineers aren't thinking that way.
