I'd hate to remind everyone that star-wars security means several things:
- A little eyeball on a stick pops out to ask you for your username and password.
- Scanners will prevent you from bringing in your favorite hardware sometimes "We don't allow their kind in here"
- Blaster turrets near the internet kiosk. Enough said.
- Dumpster diving? Just remember, you could get caught by a slime monster, or... an employee might click "empty recycle bin", and you'd be flattened.
- Social Engineering made easy! "This is not the incorrect login attempt you're looking for."
- A little blue trashcan can hack into any system just in time to save people.
- Said hyperintelligent blue trashcan is still not immune to sticking his data plug into a power outlet.
- Said blue trashcan may be a trojan horse for a lightsaber.
- Intrustion attempts may result in planetary obliteration.
- Your modem goes 0.5 past lightspeed. Woot.
- Endless puns about using the source.
- Your favorite security site will actually be a wretched hive of scum and villainy.
- Your killer-application-running mainframe happens to have one small port about two meters in size which leads to your kernel. Can you call that a small closed-source oversight?
- Blast doors. You gotta have blast doors.
- Cortosis Firewalls.
- The Millenium falcon was a trojan horse.
- Stormtroopers are stupid. So are the average user today. No change. :p
The Empire of One.
More to come when I think of them :)
