    I hope you're joking about that in regards to this season which has sucked donkey balls.
    A third party security audit is the IT equivalent of a colonoscopy. It's long, intrusive, very uncomfortable, and when it's done, you'll have seen things you really didn't want to see, and you'll never forget that you've had one.

      This is actually the first season I've really watched the show at all.
      Copying the magic 'auto-delete' file only to a single, online, mainframe was a serious computer forensics win. (yes, sarcasm)
      That, and I wasn't aware the USA had a Great Firewall.
      It's not stupid, it's advanced.

        Not to mention all the blatant issues with SCADA control systems and the glaring fact that the sewer system in DC what's known as a combined system, meaning sanitary sewer and storm sewer are in the same pipes and they absolutely do not drain into the Potomac.

        I could probably write several paragraphs on the issues with this season.

          I like how the computers are a bunch of Mac laptops running Windows

            The backdoor would not have worked if they were only running 16bit modified data points.
