Three men from Michigan successfully broke in to the Lowes computer system and then tried to steal credit card data. They were not successful in stealing the credit card data, but one of them was successful in getting the longest sentence ever handed down for a computer crime. Way to go slugger!!! The thing that cracks (heh heh) me up about this whole thing is that the guys gained access to the Lowes network via a wireless connection in the Southfield, Michigan store. Let this be a lesson to all of you to lock down your wireless connection!!! I can say that all the wireless access points on Boston Blvd are locked down. Why would we worry about our home network security on Boston Blvd? We couldn’t have the kind of sensitive information that Lowes has, could we? The answer to the second question is no, but there is a man out there that is more of a threat than all three men put together. This man makes Kevin Mitnick (reformed hacker) look like Mitchell with a computer. Who is this man you ask? Read on:

Rich the Superhacker has already hacked his way into a grand total of 1 wireless network in the Grand Blanc area and he is moving in the near future to Boston Blvd. Yes folks, that house in between the MacLachlan’s and the Pinter’s is the future home of the Superhacker family. In the past few weeks, I have personally witnessed more than a few suspicious vehicles in and out of Rich’s construction site. They are moving in all of his hacking supercomputers no doubt. Rich has even had his wife Becki at the property taking pictures. She was trying to make it look like she was taking pictures of her house, but I am sure she was running a surveillance mission to pinpoint any weakness in our wireless internet connections. As a neighborhood we need to reach out to him to reform him of his hacking ways, but first, we need to protect ourselves. Lock down your routers my friends and don’t underestimate the cunningness of the Superhacker. He is going to check his email, of this you can be sure. Will it be your wireless connection he uses?
