That's just an absolutely wonderful misdirection to throw off someone...like this guy....who was somewhat experienced, but still got kinda flustered and seemed to slip up after the normal shit doesn't't work. I know of a few companies that I have been with and inside that do some sneaky tricks with their security, surprisingly.

Wow, this episode of Darknet Diaries was intense! I couldn't believe the level of dedication and determination that Tinker had as he went undercover as a marketing temp. The way he was able to hack into the company's network by any means necessary was impressive. The frustration and tension throughout the story made it an emotional roller coaster. A definite must-listen episode, in my opinion.👏

Wired Magazine ran a great article on 'Net vulnerability. At the time, domain manes were not protected enough. (I'm not a techie so I'll probably describe some of this incorrectly.) A guy had a bike accident and broke his ankle. While on prescribed pain killers his mind, was, well, high and disconnected. He suddenly had an insight that panicked him. He called one important exec (to something) and described the problem, and the man told him this was going to be a priority fix and NEVER discuss this on a cell phone again. The anecdote I remember is that he could have emptied the entire French treasury into his personal bank account and there'd be no way for anyone to know why France was suddenly bankrupt. They fixed it, and Wired ran the article.

Pentesters are a great sort in my experience, I learned a helluva lot from every single one that's been on our site. They can learn a thing or 2 from us Sysadmins too however, 1st guy I supervised "mysteriously lost connection" and started querying our blocking of IP scans etc. - Told him I'd need to confirm with Networks, but that 1st he should plug back in the LAN cable from his machine that he'd just kicked out of the floorport under the desk... 😅

imo they focussed on plausibility based rules and detections, I don't know if it was truly written down as a rule somewhere in their sec handbook, but it suspect it was really a design principe there. if they'd had turned off netbios broadcasts and locked down the master browser shit 90s-style they'd have driven him completely nuts.
