    This is the company that made “The Inside Man”, a series where a company gets infiltrated by not being careful enough of who they hire

      Oh yeah, I remember having to watch those for onboarding. They weren’t as cheesy as they could have been for an informational video.

      I do appreciate how they’re handling it, though. A public post-mortem is much more reassuring than damage control PR. Plus, being honest means they gain the IT folks who actually have to use their stuff as allies.

        Yeah, the series is pretty entertaining actually. And for the PR thing, they pitched it as a learning incident, and I agree with that, but they are lucky nothing truly bad happened because this company sends phishing tests, and a link could be replaced by the attackers - kind of like in a fake fake phishing email.
