He had the backups
To top it all off, Marsala even deleted his backups. He did have offsite backups but he had just connected to the provider and mounted the drives to his computer for access. This gave the command access to the offsite backup server too, letting it wipe its contents alongside everything else.

This arcitecture also means ahacker or random ware had access to destroy those off site backup. It's no excuse. PCI auditors would have him bend over the stall with petro jelly

That will remove nothing. Leslie's been removed twice already.

Neither. He exposed a vulnerability which should never have existed. His chain of command should be purged of the obvious dead wood.

Lots of good points made in the article however one extra thing I do, to be as safe as possible when using command line maintenance, is to write out everything in something like notepad first so that I can go through and check what the commands are. Then I just copy and paste in the commands, typing a command in realtime carries a lot of risks with it if you accidentally press the enter key.
Similarly in sql updates - ensuring that the 'where' clause is not on a separate line also prevents accidentally running a delete on everything.

Good idea on the 'where' clause safeguard.

I have just read that should there be a Brexit the Czechs may propose a Czexit.
Am I the only one who would like Finland to consider their position as well, if nothing else than to hear all the journos have to refer to Fexit?
It goes without saying

EU's disintegration would be a huge tradgedy.
EU brings together all of Europe into a package for Washington to direct
Absent EU would be chaos without leader to counter Russia's world wide foreign intervention

The two last times time EU wasn't together were called World War I and World War II. The time before gave birth to names like "The 30 years war". And the time before that were called the Dark Ages.
See for yourself how good that would be...

The EU does not exist to stop threats from Russia or any other 'outsider'. That's NATO's job and wouldn't be affected in the slightest by anyone leaving the EU. The job of the EU is to stop France and Germany beating the crap out of each other either militarily or economically. It can and will go on doing that even if every other member exits ... not that that is ever going to happen either.
I am not a number. I am a ... no, wait!

I think one of the S countries should leave. Sexit.

Now if we can just get Texas to leave the U.S.
We can call it Texit

Async Properties?
Wouldn't it be cool if you could do this?
public async Customer SelectedCustomer
{
get { return _selectedCustmer; }
set
{
if (_selectedCustmer != value)
{
_selectedCustmer = value;
await GetCustomerAsync(_selectedCustmer);
}
}
}

Why? That's a horrible side-effect.
