Submission + - G Suite Security Alert

Google Customer Alert

Dear G Suite Administrator,

We are writing to inform you that due to legacy functionality that enabled customer Domain Admins to view passwords, some of your users’ passwords were stored in our encrypted systems in an unhashed format. This primarily impacted system generated or admin generated passwords intended for one-time use.

We have reviewed the login information for the user account(s) and have found no evidence that the unhashed passwords were misused.

The following is the list of users impacted in your domain(s):

XXXXXX@XXXXXXXX.com

Google Planned Action: for your security, starting tomorrow Wednesday May 22, 2019 PT we will force a password change unless it has already been changed prior to that time.

Our password update methodology is as follows:

Users With Single Sign On: We will reset their password by changing it to a randomly generated secure value. Please note that this will have no effect on their ability to log in using their Single Sign On credentials.
Other Users and Super Admins: We will terminate their sessions and prompt users to change their password at their next login.
In addition, starting Wednesday, May 29, 2019 PT we will reset the password for users that have not yet selected a new password or have not had a password reset. These users will need to follow your organization’s password recovery process. Super Admins will not be impacted. For information on password recovery options please refer to the following Help Center Article.

For further questions please contact Google Support and reference issue number XXXXXXXX.

Sincerely,

The G Suite Team

Submission + - Miss Universe's visit to Guantanamo (nytimes.com) 2

pegdhcp writes: The latest winner of Miss Universe Contest (during which, no IQ test is performed, obviously) had visited the Guantanamo Bay Naval Base, and as far as I can read (before my brain started to melt and drain from my ears) she wants to stay there forever. It seems that the original blog entry is off the air at the moment but that probably would not be the end of this story. Poor Chavez, I would not want to be in his shoes, when the phone rings, and the call is from Cuba...
