Great!!
Too bad my miners are down for tweaking
, last card came in and there are some little piddly problems to resolve.
From the note and the "ransom" I can almost guarantee this was a script kiddy.
I cannot tell you how much I have come to loath these vermin.After years of education including security and "hacking" classes, I have come to the conclusion that they are akin to the spoiled kid, spray painting on the wall. Causing a large amount of ruckus and senseless damage in most cases for no gain (The professionals step in and end it quickly, as demonstrated by your data center) other than some "rep" with there fellow vermin.
Real professional hacking is an art form, and one will rarely see, as the point is to be as quiet as possible. No "ransoms" in "leet"speak, but a quiet graceful entrance into a system, gather the data wanted and a traceless exit out.
Anyway, I am getting way off topic
Hopefully the data center will be encouraged enough to back trace the idiot, it can be difficult, but not impossible.Looking at the "ransom" note however leads me to believe this was probably a very clumsy and messy attack, more than likely easier to trace then some of the more "experienced" script kiddies.
