When you think you've seen it all, but then you read the news: the security camera in the Louvre, France's main museum guarding the Mona Lisa, is protected by the password louvre...

Not Louvre123, not Louvre!2024, but just louvre. Small letters 😏

No, well, this is the level ( So then say something about the attacks on Aeroflot or SDEK )

B reports after a recent robbery ( beautiful website done with a robbery analysis, check it out ) it turned out that access to video surveillance was with this password ( and it’s good that at least with a password ). I can’t say that I’m very surprised by this, because in my not so long career I’ve also seen things that I wouldn’t have believed myself just 6 years ago ( I really want to tell you about the mess that I saw in one of our departments when I went on an audit, but I can’t If they are offended by me, I won’t be able to write to you for about 3 years according to Art. 183 of the Criminal Code of the Russian Federation ) ❤️

This isn't even low OpSec - it's somewhere between "wrote the password on the monitor" and "called the scammers to check if they were scammers"

The irony is that the entire global information security industry is struggling with zero trust, AI anomaly analysis, SASE and other buzzwords, but in the real world the password for the museum where the Mona Lisa hangs is louvre 👏

Well, what can I say, sometimes human stupidity is also art. Not everyone would have thought of this 🧠
