Security matters

As Joe told me, RMIT Vietnam does not have a Unix specialist to maintain its server. A few days ago, I figured out a critical security hole in RMIT unix server that enabled any student to access other’s “H: drive” without permission. The problem was reported to the ITS department and was fixed just in time.

Although few students might not have already known about this, three days for a reported problem to be addressed is too long (I reported it on Friday and received the reply on Monday).

Up to now, I am still worried about the wireless network which is open and unsecured.
