How it was found

Hi DoD VDP,

I have found a document and each page of it is marked CUI : "Controlled Unclassified Information". According to your standards, this file shouldn't be publicly available on internet.

This document was last edited on █████████ 2021. My investigation leads me to think it could have been public since around █████████.

This presentation contains information that could be sensitive : -███████ -██████

The file can be found here : https://█████

Thank you and best wishes for 2022!
