This month TJX , next? Is it really hacking when they make it this easy:D
It looks like TJX's Grand Theft autoteller card wasn't as challenging as being able to sit through any Ocean' 11,12,13 movie trying to work out which actor was in a movie that sucked the least in living memory. It's looking like the good, though not at security, folks over at Marshall's took a rather interesting attitude towards security
I love the Sub headline over at ARS
Blame for record-breaking credit card data theft laid at the feet of WEP
2001 called and it wants its state-of-the art WiFi security back.
I don't buy the articles ultimate line in which calls for regulation because the state is somehow better at implementing IT security than what exactly? HellOOO www.blackboxvoting.org
Most of the proposed legislation on this subject takes on the private sector but leaves the state out of it, er what info do they think impressed private business the most.. state approved ID
Let's see how much safe and cosy that gets us.. ( about as much as frottering a hedgehog ) at the Maine outdoor Peta conference held in January )
How many states have their public records online with SSN with DL and even if they don't wander into most court records for divorces and you have all the ID info you need because the state is even further behind.Is it not a total joke that identity is keyed to publicly accessible info?
I've had communication with a few companies that wanted info from me that they couldn't use ( Fry Groceries is an example that wanted to copy my driving license number just to buy alcohol yet their "safe keeping" I still have doubts over who gets the info , how long it's held for and how it's disposed. Anytime they ask for it they lose a sale.
Back to "our protectors" for a giggle. the S in T S A seems to have gone missing;0

In many ways, "gross negligence" doesn't even begin to describe TJX's blunder. When I first discovered that the retailer was relying on WEP to secure its store networks, I was stunned. WEP has been known to be incredibly easy to hack since the first cracks were demonstrated in 2001.
