A hacking group have hinted that the National Health Service is vulnerable to attack. its getting a bit scary now that its so easy to get past lock out ans password's. where will it end?
I wouldn't worry about it. The attack on Sony was understandable, though stupid. The hack of PSN has encouraged many wannabe hackers from around the world to give it a go unfortunately, hence all this shit. I doubt the attacks on Nintendo and Codemasters (Not that I know anything about them) were committed by the same people.
Eric Beale: I used the VNC controller to piggyback the upload with a trojan and corrupt the streaming data packets by initiating stack overflow.
Henrietta 'Hetty' Lange: In English, Mr. Beale.
Eric Beale: I broke the Internet.
I'm seriously getting paranoid. And I'm guessing if the NHS can be hacked, my system isn't as secure as I'd like to think... Without the "mainframe" I cant even turn the bloody lights on.

Nothing is secure, IMO. AVs aren't 100% accurate and firewalls aren't 100% hack proof.

I know that. But if a system made by a dozen blokes with ph.d's is so easy to hack as they claim. i wonder how a secure mine could possibly be. hell, it was made by an 18 year old IT security student. now, i'm good, but not that good.
