1 In 3 Sysadmins Snoop On Colleagues

Posted by timothy on from the and-they-steal-chips-and-soda dept.

klubar writes "According to a a recent survey, one in three IT staff snoops on colleagues. U.S. information security company Cyber-Ark surveyed 300 senior IT professionals, and found that one-third admitted to secretly snooping, while 47 percent said they had accessed information that was not relevant to their role. Makes you wonder about the other 2 out of 3. Did they lie on the survey or really don't snoop?"

    Really, I don't care what boring files you keep... Just the interesting files :-) I only look at log files to keep an eye on the system or if a user tried to be "smart".

    p.s. - to whoever modded this as a troll, suck it, motherfucker. There, that's trolling. Apparently you don't understand that "perimeter" means physical as well as network. But, then again, I bet you don't get out mommy's basement much, do you?

    ON OUR REALLY EXPENSIVE SAN STORAGE

    You're blaming the user for overpaying on your storage solution? It's hardly their fault that the $/GB you paid is too high. And before you ask: I'm familiar with large storage systems. I can comfortably say that I see more storage on Tuesday of any week than you will your entire career. We have lots, because we get it cheap.
