I doubt it, in fact I don’t think she actually hacked anything....any hacker worth anything would not go around bragging about it...

Although this person worked for AWS who was providing Cloud Services to Capital One, I think this person had Admin Access to the Firewall, Servers, or both and put a back door into the system they could exploit at a later date...

Once they had a back door, they copied the files offsite. Capital One would not have figured this out until this person started bragging about their exploits....

I doubt it, but it’s possible.

It only take ONE person with the right type of access to create holy hell for a major company.

That’s not how it works in most IT departments I’ve worked in...and I’ve worked in some that have worldwide operations.

What happens is you submit a very detailed set of documents spelling out everything you will be changing, once that gets approved you are authorized to make configuration changes...on a specific date and time....

While you are making those changes it would not be a huge problem to put in a back door for yourself, yes the changes sometimes get audited but in configurations and code that is extremely long and detailed, the chances of catching anything implemented outside of the documented changes are small...

Just because the ignorant ba$tard lopped of his pecker and wears dresses does not make it a woman

If the scenario you describe is true, then Amazon might have culpability in this hack.

With high level system privileges on the Amazon cloud, the Amazon sysadmin could be able to spot some vulnerabilities in client systems, exploit it, and then hide the activities.

Methinks Amazon doth protest too much, and too soon.

More proof of the mental instability of the Alphabet soup demographic.

What’s really ticking me off is I’ve been cruising the cable TV channels, Fox, MSNBC, CNN, and none of the newscasters are saying that “she” is really a “he”. They are all calling “it” a she, misleading the viewers that this is really a woman that did the hacking (hackers are almost always men so an instant red flag was raised) which is an outright lie. It’s a flat out con job on the public.

This is another mentally troubled (as in whack job) male bragging about how he did this hacking, another sicko that the politically correct MSM cover for by feeding into the meme that a Trannie is “normal” and not all screwed up. The first clue to those that have figured it out might be that Trannie deviancy is less than 1 percent of the U.S., in fact world population in numbers. Talk about the PC tyranny over the majority by an infinitesimal minority.

The PC media feed this lie and deception to their audiences and then wonders why no one trusts this “fake” news that is presented to them as truth on TV and in the Press. And the Libs always portray themselves as being rational science based folks while these elite secularists (that is their religion, secularism) are the sane ones whereas the rest of fly over country is not. Liberalism is truly a mental disease. They prey on the ill educated, politically ignorant and easily brainwashed populace who don’t bother to figure out how they are being snookered and thus allow for so much of this deviant behavior.

The elitest Socialists/Dems/MSM/Commie pinkos lay in wait for the day that they can finallyy tip the demographics far enough to the socialist left so that they can gain total control over the levers of government and thus rule over their globalist world. Over my dead body and conservatives must fight back with all we’ve got. No more Mr. Nice Guy.

This is a fight for the survival of the fittest. Wake up everyone, your way of life is in dire jeopardy by these very sick in the head, power hungry totalitarians.

I dressed up as a girl one time for Halloween. Even had my mom do my makeup. Went to school, and the girl who sat in front of me didn’t recognize me. I mean, I was in like 4th grade at the time.

In 5th grade, us football players dressed up as cheerleaders, and the cheerleaders dressed up as football players.

Only two times I remember I ‘dressed like a girl’.

Words have meaning - despite the communists:

He is a male, according to my inference. He may legally change his name to whatever he likes, but he does not own the Standard English pronoun for third-person singular feminine usage.

There is thus no such thing as a transgender: It is all cosmetic and semantic camouflage for delusion, immorality, and possibly insanity.

It is long past time we conservatives take back the language. They are militantly abusing it to restrict our First Amendment rights.

Black people have the best “WTF” faces ever!

That’s a compliment by the way. They know BS when they see it.
