Mitnick Testifies on Telco's Security

Posted by michael on from the what-me-worry dept.

Woefdram writes "Our favourite computer criminal (?) Kevin Mitnick testified in a case against Telco Sprint that their security was like Swiss cheese: full of holes. The story on SecurityFocus quotes Mitnick, saying, 'I had access to most, if not all, of the switches in Las Vegas,' and tells how he came up with a list of 100 challenge-response codes." We've written about this case before.

    Saying Java is nice because it works on all OS's is like saying that anal sex is nice because it works on all genders.
