Re: Security and user environments
I agree with Ken Arnold. Way back when, I caught two students poking
around a HASP system I was running. One of them was just curious, and
trying to learn things -- we hired him, and he proved to be our best
weapon in stamping out malicious activity. Not only did we eliminate
one "threat" and get some productive activity out of him; other students
learned from the example -- if all you want to do is learn, come by my
office; I'm always glad to teach system internals. The other guy was
poking around the student grade files; we weren't nearly that generous....
