* I find out I'm about to get fired, and I decide to give myself the only admin privileges on these servers (that control databases, production code, etc). I'm then fired -- does the whole company go under because I can willfully refuse to give up the passwords for the admin accounts?*
They will sue you and since it's likely you can be shown to have acted with malicious intent courts won't be sympathetic.
- ruswick 14y agoIs that not what the kid did, just after getting fired?
- ensignavenger 14y agoI did not read the full article- but just did. He did not add the password only after finding out he was being fired (in fact, the way he tells it, he was escorted from the building). I think it would be very difficult to demonstrate malicious intent. But again, I'm not a lawyer :) Or a judge.
