Once again, I call on Michelle Obama or the next first man/lady to make cyber security your cause.
We need to teach our children to understand that only a fool would put critical systems on the public internet. Only a fool would forget to implement account lockout rules or forget login rate limiting (edit) --where approprate--. Only a fool would create software with built in default usernames and passwords. Hello world, the "admin" username does not have to be admin or administrator. Computer security today is a joke. Almost a total illusion.
We need to pay less attention to Kim Kardashashen and more attention to HD Moore.
