I witnessed a person put RDP open to the internet on a new server and used Admin* as the password. Server was hit with ransomware in less than 2 days. Needless to say, they had to start over.

Maybe it was a POC about how weak passwords are bad?

poc?

Thank you,

Poc means something else around here.

It often means the one you're thinking of as well.

Trouble shooting this today

I bet that was fun! Did you find any snakes or venomous spiders in there? I thump stuff before sticking my hands in now. I found a black widow or three hiding in a rack in an electrical closet one day.

How does one thump?

How about bump? That might work better. Hit it with a stick (GENTLY! -- unless you're actually trying to break something) and see if anything crawls out, hisses, and/or jumps after you.
