CentOS - Apr 2018 - [OFF-TOPIC] Reminder to tighten ALL types of security

This posting is off-topic because it is not about Centos. Please
refrain from replying to the list as that will generate further off-topic
traffic inevitably irritating subscribers.

On the balance of probabilities, I think everyone will benefit from
reading at least the first 6 pages of a 19 pages English criminal
sentencing statement about a child, in England, successfully breaking
into the home and business computer systems of top USA CIA, FBI and Homeland
Security entities.

It is shocking and disquieting. Security is more than a firewall and
SELINUX - it is procedures too. When the CIA director is easily hacked
and his family pestered, how safe are you and your systems ?
