  • Does your IT policy prevent this?!

    Angry Employee Deletes All of Company's Data
    Link

    I sure hope so!

    The best part:
    When Marie Lupe Cooley, 41, of Jacksonville, Fla., saw a help-wanted ad in the newspaper for a position that looked suspiciously like her current job — and with her boss's phone number listed — she assumed she was about to be fired.
    ...
    As for the job, Cooley originally wasn't in danger of losing it. The ad was for Hutchins' wife's company.

    The best part:
    The IT guy at an old job wasn't much brighter than her boss.

    His idea of password security was first initial, last name, month and year (current).

    He didn't quite understand WHY I wouldn't comply with company policy until I logged in as HIM one day. Comes rushing into the office asking "What the hell are you doing?" I tell him that I'm making a point about his lack of internal security, and if he'd like to go to the general manager that I'd be more than happy to log out, log in as the GM, and then go into his office and explain things.

    For some odd reason we never really got along after that.


    The only thing he should have been in charge of securing was the company refrigerator.
    Cliff Stoll...because real IT history is cool.

      Off-site backup to tape. Not even I can easily erase all 4 copies.
