Humpty Posted December 14, 2006 Share Posted December 14, 2006 Quote: MySpace estimates that more than 100,000 people fell for the attack before it was shut down. The data I have is from two different collection points, and was cleaned of the small percentage of people who realized they were responding to a phishing attack. I analyzed the data, and this is what I learned. Article Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Woody Posted December 15, 2006 Share Posted December 15, 2006 Quote: We used to quip that "password" is the most common password. Now it's "password1." Who said users haven't learned anything about security? It is never difficult to distinguish between a Scotsman with a grievance and a ray of sunshine. P. G.

Eldmannen Posted December 15, 2006 Share Posted December 15, 2006 I've read on Slashdot recently that the average MySpace user has a better password than the average worker at a company. "You know the computer security of your company is bad when dumb emo kids on MySpace got better passwords than your employees". http://it.slashdot.org/it/06/12/14/1917222.shtml Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
