oh yes

and they're pushing it hard

Or rather already is.

i'm in it consulting

everything has to be in the cloud

all the devices have to be reachable and configurable

Any companies that make these devices focus R&D on new product dev, not actually keeping up with responsible updates for their customers.

security = discipline

not many shops have it

I hate that buzzword: "cloud" always made me cringe.

do you guys find it difficult to stay secure in this era of l33t h4x0rs?

must be tough

hahah, yeah i use it without thinking these days

There aren't l33t haxors so much as there are stupid users.

People are still getting compromised over basic repeated shit.

nigerian princes?

28k unsecured instances

hilarious

that's what you get for "muh NoSQUL muh next gen db"

They definitely had it coming.

yess, all the bootcamp hackathon bro hackers getting owned is rather satisfying

Lol hackathons

Ionorite

that's the beauty of tech. actual understanding simply wins

downsides to nature and society nonwthstanding

It's eugenics almost. And the most unapologetic thing that happens due to human weakness.

But at least it creates opportunity.

the q is whether we're riding the tiger or being part of the decadence though

to me, anyway

Yeah, my biz partners and I discussed this recently. If we ever came across pizzagate level shit, we'd sacrifice our rep to exploit them.

Hands down.

If Podesta was our client we'd go full Snowden on his ass.

good attitude

i'm still not sure about pizzagate

is it real?

idk
