How To Hack A Bank
from the it's-easy dept
News.com is running a series of articles (this is the first one only) about how to hack a bank. Basically, they're just pointing out that banks aren't the most secure place these days. A popular method appears to be targeting banks that have recently merged, since often formerly secure stuff is accidentally left wide open during the merger process. They also say smaller banks are often targeted, since those banks also don't like to publicize the fact that they've been hacked.
Thank you for reading this Techdirt post. With so many things competing for everyone’s attention these days, we really appreciate you giving us your time. We work hard every day to put quality content out there for our community.
Techdirt is one of the few remaining truly independent media outlets. We do not have a giant corporation behind us, and we rely heavily on our community to support us, in an age when advertisers are increasingly uninterested in sponsoring small, independent sites — especially a site like ours that is unwilling to pull punches in its reporting and analysis.
While other websites have resorted to paywalls, registration requirements, and increasingly annoying/intrusive advertising, we have always kept Techdirt open and available to anyone. But in order to continue doing so, we need your support. We offer a variety of ways for our readers to support us, from direct donations to special subscriptions and cool merchandise — and every little bit helps. Thank you.
