Adversaries may gather the victim's physical location(s) that can be used during targeting. Information about physical locations of a target organization may include a variety of details, including where key resources and infrastructure are housed. Physical locations may also indicate what legal jurisdiction and/or authorities the victim operates within.
Adversaries may gather this information in various ways, such as direct elicitation via Phishing for Information. Physical locations of a target organization may also be exposed to adversaries via online or other accessible data sets (ex: Search Victim-Owned Websites or Social Media).(Citation: ThreatPost Broadvoice Leak)(Citation: SEC EDGAR Search) Gathering this information may reveal opportunities for other forms of reconnaissance (ex: Phishing for Information or Search Open Websites/Domains), establishing operational resources (ex: Develop Capabilities or Obtain Capabilities), and/or initial access (ex: Phishing or Hardware Additions).

Comments
AWS Security Hub detects improperly secured data from S3 buckets such as public read and write access that may result in an adversary getting access to information that could be used during targeting. AWS Security Hub provides these detections with the following managed insights.
S3 buckets with public write or read permissions S3 buckets with sensitive data
This is scored as Minimal because S3 only represents one of many available sources of information that an adversary could use for targeting.
