Yeah thats all just peachy n stuff but it costs lots of money. Most conscientious CEO's wouldnt have an issue with outlaying the cash to a set budget/informed risk factor, but I get the distinct feeling this twat really thought it would never happen to him - no matter what form it arrived in.

I dunno. All this hoo-har about a bozo who couldn't be arsed ensuring they had business continuity? Clearly they couldn't give a toss. I'm quite amazed at the amount of people who think that by putting applications online think that they will be safe from the black hats. I must be old skool or something but I just don't trust anything that is exposed to those who might and cover my arse as much as humanly possible.

Patching and upgrades etc are fine and will usually keep the script kiddies busy for a while but there's always going to be some smartarse out there who has a will and an inclination to 0wn a system. Nothing is impenetrable.

Robots need love and attention too. But seriously, the only thing I had issues with was making it with a cave person to ensure the survival of humanity. I mean come on... how gross is that? *shudder*
