Not necessarily post production but the security at Discovery Channel was pretty poor when I worked there. Massive open directory where everyone tossed files. Didn't want to snoop around and get in trouble but I heard from some people there it's pretty laughable. It didn't even require a login...
- golergka 10y agoIANAL, but I would never leave such a comment under a nickname that is tied to my real name - you are kind of disclosing their internal security procedures or lack thereof in a public forum.

- UnoriginalGuy 10y agoThat isn't illegal. What law do you think they violated?

- KaiserPro 10y agothe last VFX I worked for in 2014 was the only company to have no passwords for computer logins (email had passwords...) When I left, AD, 90 day password rotation, air gaps, RDP internet and no copy and paste. That made the google debugger rather hard (along with phone home licensing...)
