Microsoft exec tells how hacker got in | |

Thanks to a K for point this out. Once inside, the intruder searched for a server with a blank password, Herbold said. Until Microsoft released its Windows 2000 software last year, its server software came with a blank password, and administrators sometimes forget to create new passwords. Herbold said a server being set up for a customer was left with a blank password, giving the intruder access. Next the intruder searched the network for personal computers with blank passwords or passwords that would be easy to decipher, Herbold said. | ||
