That's not a real auditor, that's a hacker posing as an auditor. If that auditor didn't have a signed, bonded affidavit from the CEO saying that he could social engineer the IT department to test their resolve then they should immediately have called the FBI, assuming that this is the US. That the person claims to be an auditor doesn't make him one, that he keeps badgering the IT guy makes what might be a mistake into clear social engineering. Charges should have been filed against them. Had they done that to a public company, charges would like have been brought under any number of federal statutes including SEC regulations.
from the linked article:
My "legal guy" has suggested revealing the company would probably cause more problems than needed. I can say though, this is not a major provider, they have less 100 clients using this service. We originally started using them when the site was tiny and running on a little VPS, and we didn't want to go through all the effort of getting PCI (We used to redirect to their frontend, like PayPal Standard). But when we moved to directly processing cards (including getting PCI, and common sense), the devs decided to keep using the same company just a different API. The company is based in the Birmingham, UK area so I'd highly doubt anyone here will be affected.
I made a short video on the specifics of some of the mechanisms on a few different firearms so you can see some differences of safeties, levers, etc.
Important note for anyone new or need a refresher on firearms safety... you'll notice I check the guns over and over for bullets. Even before the video started, I unloaded the magazines and checked the chambers. Even if you know, and verified, there is no mag in the firearm, no bullets inside either the mag or the chamber, don't pull the trigger when the firearm is pointed at something unsafe to shoot at. Only in demonstrations will I put a hand in front of the muzzel, and even then I prefer a safety orange gun (dummy gun). But in the instance of the 1911, an orange gun couldn't be used to show the action.
That is horribly awesome. As soon as your truck is in working order most definitely drive it to the nearest gas station and drop a few grand on lottery tickets.
Valid point. I was told not to enable any of them. So maybe they are going based on trust. 😄
By someone working in an IT department? If someone told me that I'd ask a manager to look into if they were socially engineering me. That sounds like someone testing you.
I like how every planet they find now is a pontential "earth like" planet. As close as it is to its parent star it is most likely tidally locked to the star.
