Editor's Notes
- In December 2014 a breach of Sony’s technology infrastructure made world-wide headlines. What happened?
- The hackers succeeded by capturing or using the administrator password or user name of a network administrator who had access to everything on the internal Sony network.
- Release of a major film has been all but cancelled Private and embarrassing intercompany communications have been made public Confidential company information has become public Executives’ personal comments and anecdotes have been taken out of context and created consternation and humiliation
- “The Interview” movie cost over $40 million to produce SONY spent another $35 million or so on promotion and materials for the film The public-relations and additional network security expenditures haven’t even been calculated yet, but are estimated to be at least $100 million
- Viruses Spam Worms Keyloggers Trojan horses DDoS attacks Spam bots Man-in-the-middle attacks Port scans Packet sniffers Password crackers . . . and more!
- You don’t build a house and start with the roof. You start with the foundation. These items are the foundation. I’ll address each one.
