had a revelation last night while driving home from the data center....

had a tremendous bout with a desctructive hacker or series of hackers that decided if they were going to be locked out, they were going to do as much damage as possible on the way out.

Case in point -- change your FTP passwords today. Make sure to upgrade any software that you are using. This attack came in through a piece of software that even their latest version is exploitable. The authors said: Nah, its not exploitable, so, we handed them logs and showed them. Their software needs to be completely rewritten to remove at least a dozen entry points.

The fun never ends.
