The VP of our company had his email hacked over the weekend. 4000+ spam emails sent from his account and a return email for each one stating that Microsoft couldn't deliver because it was flagged as spam.
I don't even know where to start with this because I know he kept plain text passwords in emails to himself. It's looking like they just hacked it to spam people, but who really knows? It appears that they had access for about a week and launched the spamming Saturday morning.
He had over 13,000 things in his deleted folder, too... I'm thinking he was using that as an archive.
Most likely, his credentials were taken from a different service that was hacked. Look up his email address on haveibeenpwned.com, then show him that all of those credentials are known. Also, enable 2FA. Ffs, tjat should be standard long already and would have prevented this. Also change his pw asap and enable 2fa/mfa.

You don't know how long they sat on the credentials and what they did. You should consider it a total account breech, any plain text passwords with account names also compromised. And PII in his email also.

Morning. Happy Monday.
I may or may not have complained to the service manager last friday about a few things I've noticed.I now have a meeting this week with My Boss, Service Manager and GM..
This could very easily go two different directions, one they are going to reprimand you (squeaky wheel gets the hammer) or two they are going to offer you a raise to get you to shut up.
Im going to probably see it as a reprimand.
God forbid anyone try and say anything against the crown.If you didn't get what was promised you, and they reprimand you, you own them. Threatening you to try to not pay you what they already owe you is theft.

Dealing with a Cisco Switch that only would upgrade the firmware through IE....
By definition, that switch is no longer supported.

I can't remember where it was, but just this past week or so, someone was saying how Vultr or something wasn't as good as Google Cloud because GCP simply never went down. But they had an outage yesterday, right after someone mentioned it

Ha, could be. Although I could find no mention of it on ML, so it might have not even been here.
