sysop408, 19 days ago @danluu it’s even worse with small businesses. The following was a real exchange with someone who once called me to report a mail problem. 🤠: My email’s account’s acting weird. (I review some log files on the mail server.) Me: Hmmm, there’s some strange login activity. This doesn’t look good. Someone’s broken into your account. 🤠: Why would anyone want to do that? Me: Trust me. You need to change your password ASAP. 🤠: Nah. Me: No really. You need to change your password. 🤠: That’s too much trouble. It’s not a big deal. Let’s just forget about this. #sysadmin #infosec
