Your security failure was so bad we have to close the company .... NOT!
readers can confess to the naughty or not-quite-competent things they did at work, knowing they will not be judged.This week meed a man we'll Regomize as"Thaddeus". Thaddeus was the chief technical officer of an organization a decade or so back – a position of some authority, with employees who looked up to him with trusting eyes.As was appropriate, Max had access to all of the firm's computers and systems.
One morning, Max called in to work to say he would be late. It seemed that his brother had enrolled in an online course about"ethical hacking" and some of his activities connected to the course had attracted the attention of the constabulary. The result was the cyber crime squad arrived and, with sirens blaring and battering rams held high, raided Max's home, literally breaking down the door, shouting"POLICE POLICE" and confiscating every bit of computer equipment in the house.
You have to wonder what they thought he'd done. Thaddeus, tragically, provided no detail about the alleged hacking. Max therefore told Thaddeus that he would be late, and also that one of the computers confiscated was a laptop that belonged to the company – an innocent bystander caught up in the maelstrom.At which point an imp whispered mischief into his ear. He went to see the HR manager,"Susan", and asked her to play along with him.
