"Pics X-ray equipment, farm machinery, electricity generators. Security
cameras,
desktops with browsers logged into Facebook, stock inventory software.
Sales
registers, home alarm equipment ... the list goes on.
All this and more on VNC Roulette: a website that popped up this week to
remind
us of the kinds of sensitive systems exposed unprotected on the public
internet.
VNC lets people share their desktops over networks so they can access
software
and files from other computers. This is handy if you want to check into your
home PC, or some equipment on the other side of a site, while away.
Crucially,
though, these connections should be secured with passwords and encryption.
And thousands upon thousands of machines aren't."
