Weak passwords = Easy to Hack
Monday, June 14, 2010 at 5:20PM
I am amazed at the feedback of our bake-off. Some questions revolved around the fact that a tool used exploits against weak passwords and SMB shares. This is still a major security problem.
Users still make hacking easy with weak passwords
In response to our bake-off, Core Security Blog, noted that the product does not exploit that unless you unlock the feature. It should be noted that at a previous HackMiami event, we identified that the cash register had an exploit that allowed us full access to the Credit Card System. It was weak passwords/SMB.
It doesn't matter how many locks one has on their doors. If you don't shut the door, the locks can't save you!!!!
