One key problem facing Healthcare.gov is that security wasn’t built into the site from the very beginning, he said -- an opinion shared by both Kennedy and Fred Chang, the distinguished chair in cyber security at Southern Methodist University.

No security on the Obamacare website. No security in Benghazi. The Obama regime sure has that pesky consistency thingie down to a science.

I told you all so. DON’T GO TO THE OBAMACARE WEBSITE, Phone or Office. THEY ARE ID THIEVES DREAM SITES.

If the expected health care increases don’t scare people about ACA, loss of their private information should Identity theft will make the health care cost increases seem like a mere pittance.

Yup, as secure as our boarders. Then again, did anyone truly expect it to be anything but insecure?

That’s some really bad project management. Website security is pretty important. Really makes you wonder if it was deliberate.

And if I had to guess, based on what I can see … I would say the website is either hacked already

Gosh, y'THINK?

Programmers will have an OMG moment.

If ordinary folks can’t even open the first page, how can hackers do it ?

Gee, ya think?

They may as well have put a flashing red banner on it.
“This Website is Designed and Run by Incompetents.
Welcome, Ukrainian Hackers!”

Our cybersecurity guys have identified plenty of holes and backdoors in that mess of a website. I’ve seen a few of them demonstrated. Their advice which I already knew is stay the hell away from it or your identity will be cloned many times over.

Not only did they forget the Security, they forgot the Intelligence, Knowledge, Constitutionality and likely a bunch of other things.

"All four cyber security experts unanimously concurred that, given the security issues, Americans should not use the site at present."

They should take the site down until they can fix that.

If you were a business or provider with such a site, you'd be required to notify everyone that used your site that their information may have been compromised.

Sounds like a backpedal from the claims earlier this week that it was being DDOS attacked by right wing zealots.

Normally, I wouldn’t have believed this . . . however, now . . .

“Hackers are definitely after it,” said David Kennedy, CEO of information security firm TrustedSEC before a House Science, Space, and Technology committee hearing on security concerns surrounding the problematic Healthcare.gov website.

"Think they'll listen to him?"

"No way! Now, mirror those servers to ours"

Oh, that? We forgot about that.

“It’s not only social security numbers … it’s one of the largest collections of personal data, social security and everything else, that we’ve ever seen,” Kennedy said.

Well, heck, who would be interested in that?

The bad news is that your medical and tax records are now in the hands of a 12-year-old North Korean hacker. The good news is he's your heart surgeon.
