Hackers Make the Naughty List
In a recent breach of security it has been reported by head security personnel at North Pole Central that hackers have circumvented the security, which hardens the T-SQL, database housing the “Naughty and Nice lists.”
Ho Ho Mojo the Chief Security Officer (CSO) for Santa Inc. was Quoted as saying that “…evil hackers penetrated the Naughty and Nice list removing their names from the “Coal in the Stocking” table and impregnating the “Nice” table with their handles and including “lavish gifts” for them to receive at Christmas….” Although Mojo would not comment on the specific exploit used to gain access to the “Naughty and Nice List” he did state that they had informed Microsoft of the critical nature surrounding the intrusion and were informed that Mr. Gates had every one of his top experts investigating the problem and working on a suitable patch.
When asked about the incident Pixel Snow, Santa’s top elf, press correspondent for the big man was quoted as saying that “….Santa was disturbed tremendously by the event, and had mixed feelings about leaving Mr. Gates on the Nice list, after his software allowed such a critical infrastructure to be exposed in such a manner…..”
Though the facts are still unconfirmed, a North Pole News source, said that the hack was the workings of the “HO HUM HACKER TROOP” who left references to their website www.down-with-christmas.org .
