You claim not a MySQL guru, but are shooting down the majority opinion here that something major is wrong with the schema design. That's fine - use your in-memory table and then claim you need a NoSQL solution when your "big data&

I am saying there is NO WAY MySQL sucks at 7M records. That's just jacked design. Talk to me at 7B when you need to reach for something bigger.

8 million records (at 7GB!) and it's slow means there is something seriously wrong with your schema. That table would entirely fit in InnoDB Buffer Pool on any modern hardware. I want to see your slow query log.

Every one of those reasons (and likely many more we don't know about) is why the NSA is doing what they do.

I reject the tradeoff that your internal customer support 'impersonate user' web app would be available via simple password on the open internet.

Yes: from the internal rather than the external threat (bad guy employee). As tptacek mentions, breaching perimeter security from external is "game-over" in most cases.

"security" is always left for after-the-fact ---- exactly as evidenced by this disclosure and their poor in-house practices.

Roger that. I keep thinking of my customer support people as non-technical and for whom ssh keys, port forwarding & bastion hosts are way over their heads but your point is taken. There are other (cheaper!) ways to secure an internal ne

Right, I think having a non-split tunneling VPN forces employees remote computers onto the "corporate" network where they are governed by the rules of that network and establishing rules for access to internal resources is done ce

That's nice. Their application security setup, processes & procedures are apparently severely lacking. So, you might want to think about recommending them to your other clients.

Nope. Having it on the external internet is what's wrong here.

Granted, but an airgap would make working with some internal support tool a bit cumbersome :) Bastion servers if properly firewalled might be OK for a short term solution. The concern there is if you allow unfettered ssh (for example) is so

Better yet, how about making sure your employees can only connect to your internal tools when on a properly secured VPN and not "externally" from home/coffee shop/airport?

And this is why you use 2FA and put this behind a corporate VPN in RFC 1918 space. Why they are just planning for that now is amusing. "Our support tool includes an 'impersonate' feature that enables MongoHQ employees to acce

It's sad everyone on here is amazed the good guys have good tools. Sure it probably cost them $1M USD to have some server record an incoming ip from an http request, but still. "Oh noes, we aren't 3 steps ahead of them, they
