that’s just it… any vulnerable system lets them get their nose in the door, then the camel starts snooping around the tent for whatever it can get. Eventually, they find away to something juicy.

The thing is, whether we’re talking about digital or physical security, the weakest thing in any system is the humans. The sloppy passwords (c’mon it should have been Louvre25! lol.) is a human thing. clicking that phising scam is a human thing. kipping off to the egyption bedroom for tryste with receptionist is a human thing.

the simple password isn’t the problem. The people being complacent is.

the Target hack went in through the HVAC system.

At least it wasn’t the default password.

I’ve known clients that have never removed the default admin account, with a default admin password… and looked at me like I had a horn growing out my ear…

Usually, there’s a network for IP cameras, with a central server holding the video. There’s then, usually, a firewall to anything outside that, and frequently just a hardline to a monitoring system. (another computer with lots of monitors, typically.)

Most modern systems can VPN to the firewall and run a client there via remote desktop, and then access the monitoring system that way; but the server itself is not.

As to the complexity of the password, typically there’s different levels of permissions. The basic ones would just let you monitor real time, probably review recordings, and maybe rip those recordings. (but not change settings, or otherwise delete anything.) A place like the Lourve would have multiple guard stations connecting in on the local network; with dozens of guards watching cameras at any given time; and would each need their own account/logins if you wanted to make the password actually complex.

a large part of the problem is just the sheer amount of people that would need to have acounts- the lourve says they have ~1300 ‘reception and security’ staff. (for the record, reception would also be part of the security envelope… though they probably wouldn’t need the password.)

anyone dialing in from off sight would likely have their own password (and have elevated permissions to allow that.). Frequently, by remote desktoping into a system on the local network.

You’ll also notice theyre not saying the security system was actually compromised- even if the cameras were pointed the right way, they’d still have gotten in and out because the windows were a point of vulnerability. They might have been able to respond faster, but they were in and out in ten minutes. a camera wouldn’t be able to stop that, if you account for normal human reaction times… if they’d even notice the ‘contractors’.

Biden was one of the largest recipients pro-Israel bribes in us politics.

It’s unsurprising that this was true. It’s also unsurprising that it’s coming out now, after it’s too late to do anything with it.

a running joke?

Bruh, he can barely waddle.

Please tell me your phone has a flared base?

great way to teach kids to keep secrets, break the law, and access the internet discretely, though.

Careful, you’lll get your eye poked out.

Who is lobbing nukes?

It’s the same people. (No one.)

They probably* don’t even have launch vehicles for the warheads they do have. That particular branch of their military isnextremely corrupt, with people selling everything they could off on the black market. Including, apparently, launch fuel.

I would find it surprising if they could mass produce them in any meaningful quantity.

(*not something I’m willing to bet on, to be clear. This is one of those plan for the worst case. The worst case is probably they sold off a portion of warheads to the highest bidder a la Sum of All Fears but the rest are all operational.)

Does satan tolerate a big ol bowl of pasta?

Asking for a friend.

the Iron Dome, which is what trump wants to install (and calls the Golden Dome) was never meant to stop ICCBM missiles. It’s a system designed to catch the relatively short ranged rockets being used by Hamas and other missiles.

Trump is a moron.

To put the system into perspective, Israel has about 8,500 square miles of landmass. the US? 3.2 million.

did Starmer figure out that Facial Rec wasn’t working?

Protip: if you’re having to take bets between adults and the horny kids getting porn… bet on the horny kids.

The problem with abstinence isn’t that it doesn’t work.

It’s that people are horny and simply don’t abstain.

I consider it to be that she’s been so abused by everyone in her life … that it’s normal to her. Like many battered wives.

The abuse may not be physical, but I doubt she wasn’t abused.

Remember, Folks. Flies attract disease, so keep yours closed.

(or use protection.)

She was married to Charlie fucking Kirk.

He probably expected her to be subservient in literally everything. Probably didn’t think she should have had her own banking card. Probably didn’t think she should vote.

It’s not hard to imagine she had a terrible relationship. Sad that she’s not taking the opportunity to leave.

Reference to Warhammer- there’s an aspect of the magic that, if you have enough people believing a thing, it makes it so.

Orks believe painting things red (like cars,) make them go faster.

yes… it’s improved dramatically.

which is why 18,000 waters got ordered instead of 8 (or whatever.)
