Thus begins a first for me on two levels, one I will be simultaneously live tweeting, tooting and skeeting along with a movie and two that movie will be Swordfish from 2001, which I have never seen before.
Please RT for reach: I’m trying to #FOIA records on computer intrusions into DOD systems during first Gulf War (1990), I have a GAO report which gives a high level summary but am looking for more.
Does anyone know what DOD department might have investigated #hacking back then?
This book is outstanding. It's the mid 1980s, you're administrating a nascent fleet of UNIX boxen, and you are tasked with accounting for a 75¢ billing discrepancy. Naturally that eventually leads into an international conspiracy involving the FBI, NSA, and an excellent recipe for chocolate chip cookies. It is…
One of the earliest TV news segments still findable online that deals with #hackers and #hacking, a 1983 segment from CBS Nightwatch on the movie WarGames, the 414s #hacker group busts and the safety of the US nuclear arsenal. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ui8BejEVpz4
This is a fascinating case that I haven't seen really covered anywhere other than in the news at the time and academic papers. A reporter from Iowa's KWWL-TV station was involved in filming the hacking of Drake University computer systems on January 31st, 1984. #hacking#history#histodons
My interpretation of this article is that hospitals, clinics, insurance companies, etc. need to get links and repost icons for Facebook, Twitter, etc. OFF their websites. If you work for a big institution -- talk to your marketing team as they are used to doing this routinely. If you are a small provider, look at your website -- especially if you created it years ago back when no one thought of the problems and you just wanted some traffic.
TITLE: FTC, HHS warn health providers not to use tracking tech in websites, apps
The Federal Trade Commission (FTC) and Department of Health and Human Services (HHS) sent a joint letter to about 130 hospital systems and telehealth providers Thursday, warning of security risks posed by tracking technologies such as the Meta/Facebook Pixel and Google Analytics.

So curious as to whether anyone on here attended this #hacker#Christmas Con in Houston in 1991 that resulted in everyone getting kicked out of the hotel it was hosted in. From Computerworld, 7th of January, 1991. #hacking#history
I've got an #iPad / #OSINT puzzle, and I could use any suggestions anybody has to throw out there.
Back in 2022 in the middle of the pandemic a medical provider in NYC sent my uncle an iPad to attend a virtual appointment on.
I'm trying to figure out how to return it to them, or barring that, to factory reset it so that it can be returned to service as a useful device rather than a nearly brand-new iPad needing to be recycled.
This has proven to be... difficult. #Apple#tech#hacking

I've been digging up some festive #hacker related stuff from various archives to share here, starting with this very specific ad for UNIX workstations, relating to Kevin Mitnick's Christmas Day hack in 1994 of Tsutomu Shimomura. #hacking#history
Das ist so absurd. Man weiß wirklich nicht, ob man lachen oder weinen soll. phpMyAdmin ist offenbar ein »gefährliches Hackertool« im Sinne des Hackerparagrafen 202a StGB. Wenn der Gesetzgeber das JETZT nicht ändert, dann war es das mit der Responsible Disclosure. Wenn man jetzt noch dafür belangt wird, überlegt man sich zweimal, ob man die Daten nicht gleich gewinnbringend verkauft... 🤦♂️
