Twitter fixes SMS-based account hijacking vulnerability

Twitter has restricted the ability of attackers to post tweets and perform other

Darlene Storm: How the Grinch would hack the power grid


Two new security warnings have made headlines, one of a coming 9/11 crippling
cyber attack, and the other from a report about how America's power grid is
vulnerable to attack from terrorists. It's the same old song and cautionary tale
dance, except if the Grinch represented terrorists and Whoville was America,
then this is how the Grinch would attack and hack our power grid.

Just like at work, except she'll never retire

This pilot fish is the de facto support guy for his mom -- and he used to do
