Submission + - Possible Cyber Attack Against South Korean Banks and TV Stations (ap.org)

B3ryllium writes: "At least four broadcasters and two banks in South Korea are reporting massive computer accessibility issues, saying that their networks are 'paralyzed' by what looks like a cyber attack. Additional reports from Twitter suggest that hundreds of computers in the country powered off simultaneously at 2:20am, and reported "Boot device not found" errors. South Korea's military has upgraded its "Information Operation Condition (INFOCOM)" level from Level 4 to Level 3 in response to this situation."

I think the reason is that if you say it is an hacker or a virus, your manager will accept the answer (maybe because he decreased the security budget and starts thinking its his fault), whereas if you say it was an human error the finger pointing is starting really fast and people are afraid of that and trying to postpone the problem (or it maybe going away completely unrecognized as an human error).

Comment Treat them as you like to be treaded (Score 1) 842

Just treat the others as you also like to be treated. Don't annoy people, try not too hard to bring always input into something where it doesn't make sense. Nothing is more annoying then somebody that always needs to say something to every topic. Also always keep in mind that your coworker maybe do things another way as you learned, try it first out before you say it is crap. In simple words: Be a nice guy, try to help and work hard.
