Good for the goose...

I doubt most in the real world know, understand, nor care, the bullsh!t D.C. forces down the throats of biz that I.T. must carry out.

If D.C. had an accounting (people, departments, etc. fined, fired and/or JAILED), let alone required to follow the same rules, this would never be an issue.

Working in ‘secure areas’ (as part of a DoD partner not that long ago), the thought of plugging a ‘secure’ server into an internet capable jack would have got me canned and my CAC revoked!

It irked me most seeing the crap the Hildabeast is getting away with that would have shut my employer DOWN.

They are required by federal law and regulations to comply with tighter security than what they demand of commercial organizations.

Most of them don’t comply with the laws any more than most commercial orgs do.

Unfortunately the vast majority of companies will not secure customer data unless forced. I’ve had many C level executives tell me they didn’t want to know where the problems were. I still have organizations tell me the danger is vastly over stated and nobody is going to target them.

Hillary violated numerous laws with her server. I’m not going to hold my breath that she’ll pay for it.

My point precisely. It should be physically impossible. A request for secure records should go through a person, period. I feel the same way about hacking cars, airplanes, sewer systems, the power grid; it should be physically impossible without a cable connection at a secure location.
