lil info sec storytime (1/2)
so i’ve been under attack for a few days now; i was initially in disbelief bc everything is encrypted, 2FA, geolocated, and my passwords are all randomized & maximum-character length
yet i was under attack & getting breeched, but how? there’s no way they front doored me, im too protected, right?
after much diagnosis, turns out, they didn’t
they got in via calling customer service & resetting my passwords via security questions - which have been the same 3-4 questions i’ve used for pretty much my whole life
now you’d think, wait they can reset your BANKING password by simply calling & reciting your mothers maiden name?
well, yes, bc according to the largest bank in the world, that makes perfectly good sense & is strong customer protection
geo tracking? last few transactions? social security? nah, i think this random call from indonesia is probably him. trust. i mean, he knows his grandmothers last name… let’s give him the keys to the castle 3 replies
