Fools are we in the Corporate Executive Offices

Let me tell you about something that the Corporate Executive Officers aren’t telling you.

As they put more Americans that maintain the security of their data systems, which means your financial and medical data, out of work, they are exposing your data to more and more people around the World and hey, if they were Americans worried about Americans, your data would be safe.

But what will happen, if it has already not happened is that as access is granted to people working around the World, sooner or later there is going to be a slip up.

Either somebody here, which may or may not be a disgruntled person ticked off by the fact that they have or are fixing to be put out of work so that their jobs can be transferred offshore will accidentally forget to remove access as projects are completed.

Or somebody over there might have too much whatever, or hell, they might even have met the babe from heaven hell, or so they thought and they might slip up and reveal their login and password on the hot new gig they are doing for those stupid Americans.

It is just a matter of time, but things like this are going to happen, if they have not already happened.

Reuters) – The Federal Bureau of Investigation is investigating a hacking that targeted Citigroup Inc and resulted in the theft of tens of million of dollars, the Wall Street Journal said, citing U.S. government officials.The cyber attack by hackers believed to be linked to a Russian cyber gang was aimed at Citi’s Citibank subsidiary, the paper said, adding it was unclear whether the hackers gained access to the bank’s systems directly or through third parties.

Two other entities, including a U.S. government agency, were also attacked by hackers, the paper said, citing people familiar with the attack on Citibank.

The cyber attack on Citibank was believed to have taken place last summer but U.S. investigators suspect the attack could have taken place a year earlier, the paper said.

“We had no breach of the system and there were no losses, no customer losses, no bank losses,” Joe Petro, managing director of Citigroup’s Security and Investigative services told the paper.

“Any allegation that the FBI is working a case at Citigroup involving tens of millions of losses is just not true,” he said.

The FBI’s press office could not be immediately reached for comment by Reuters outside regular U.S. business hours, while a Citigroup spokesman in Hong Kong was not immediately available for comment.
