Hoff also has two posts about a recent incident his blog suffered: Why Steeling Your Security Is Less Stainless and More Irony…, A Funny Thing Happened On My Way To Malware Removal….
This is that perfect example where sharing information helps people. You get an idea of what failed, what mistakes are made, what human behaviors help or don’t help, how an attack actually worked, etc.
Normally I would bullet through some of the points, but there’s nothing terribly new here, and Hoff’s posts are worth the time to read.
