This can’t be good

Anyone that reads much on this site will see a theme in many of my posts and articles, where I stress security quite a bit. Here is a prime example of security being the job of everyone, users and system administrators alike. Here is a snippet of an article from ars technica:

“Hackers successfully infiltrated Oak Ridge National Laboratory (ORNL),
one of the nation’s leading military research facilities. The attackers
gained access by sending e-mails infected with trojan horses to ORNL
employees. The lab claims that no classified information was retrieved,
but admits that the perpetrators managed to acquire a database
containing personal information about ORNL visitors and employees,
including Social Security numbers.”

Yikes! Read more about it …
