Life should not be a journey to the grave with the intention of arriving safely in a pretty and well-preserved body, but rather to skid in broadside in a cloud of smoke, thoroughly used up, totally worn out, and loudly proclaiming βWow! What a Ride!" - Hunter S Thompson - RIP

Saw some recent article about this, and I couldn't help but think, just about everything I've ever read about the event mentions it was followed by a global tsunami with waves going around the entire globe. Given the amount of energy involved, is anyone surprised?
So they found some new arcane detail about it that only geologists can get excited about...? Something about the arrangement of sediments around New Zealand?

In my experience, idiots take many shapes.

I just saw a story on the local news that she started her musical career nearby, in Vancouver, BC.

I'm just finishing up The Cuckoo's Egg[^], by Cliff Stoll.
Have you read this book? The events take place in 1986 (book published in 1989) & it tells the story of the first Internet hacker -- hacking into University, Gov't & Military computers.
The amazing thing is that Clifford Stoll literally discovered many Security challenges before anyone else.
Dictionary Attacks - Stoll discovered hacker was stealing Unix password files but he knew hacker couldn't crack them (one-way hashed) so he was confused. Then he understood that the hacker was simply generating hashes for every word in dictionary.
Need For Sharing Discoveries - Stoll tried to share info with CIA, FBI, NSA, AFOSI (Office of Special Investigations) but no one "owned" the info so they all just ignored it.
Various Software Bugs which allow elevation - Discovered how other apps could cause bugs which expose secure info.
Clifford Stoll Gnu emacs was the hole in our systemβs security. A subtle bug in an obscure section of some popular software. Installed blindly by our systems programmers, weβd never thought that it might destroy our whole systemβs security.
Fantastic book that is literally the beginning of the security industry.
Have you read it?

I saw the 1990 PBS "Nova" episode derived from the book. Excellent.

That's very cool. I am so amazed that Stoll did this work back in 1986.
I would love to know more about his traps that would alert him when the hacker logged in.
I guess it was some type of shell script or something.
I would love to see that code.
Also, it was very cool that he had the system send alerts to his pager. That is freaking amazing tech for 1986!!! So cool!

I read it too.
The book is amazing.
Unfortunately, we didn't learn any lessons from it.

> Unfortunately, we didn't learn any lessons from it.
That's the on thing we could learn 
|
|
|
|

One thing that history has taught us is that we don't learn from history.

True. It's great oxymoron.

Cracked me up! So true.
I also forgot to list the fact that Stoll created a Honey-pot also.
Very cool, he created all those fake docs to lure the hacker in.

I remember reading it, but not much of the details. I do remember however thinking how naive "they were back then", and yet how little we've progressed since.

They were so naive back then. So true.
Nothing's changed.

One of my favorite books. I read it for the first time back in 1994 I think, in college. I got my copy of the book from a friend and since lost it. I re-purchased it sometime in the 20-teens and after re-reading it, it still proudly sits on my shelf to this day. I recommend it to everyone going into cybersec. The book is amazing though. It covers account control issues, brute force, exploits introduced by uncontrolled software, honeypotting, and the somewhat hilarious examples of dealing with "the agencies" who in that day and age wanted nothing to do with things at first.
It shows how a hacker will go out of his way to investigate leads and connect dots and spend hours upon countless hours exploiting every angle to accomplish their goals. A+++, can't recommend it enough.
