Don’t talk to the ATM, young man, it’s just a machine and there’s nobody inside

Re: Staff don’t care about access to the computers

I was once working for a large financial institution, about twenty years ago.

We had a call from one of the users that a system had stopped working, around 6pm. Couldn't log into the server remotely, so we wandered into the machine room - where we found the top off the server, and the memory chips all nicked. Someone had literally come in off the street and pinched the memory from a server.

This was in the days when memory chips were very expensive....

It was a long time ago, but still - anon for this one...!
