San Francisco DA discloses city's network passwords | IDGNS | News | July 25,
2008 | By Robert McMillan, IDG News Service

    In its bid to protect the city from one computer security risk, the San
    Francisco District Attorney's Office may very well have created another.

    The office of San Francisco District Attorney Kamala Harris has made
    public close to 150 usernames and passwords used by various departments to
    connect to the city's virtual private network. The passwords were filed
    this week as Exhibit A in a court document arguing against a reduction in
    $5 million bail in the case of Terry Childs, who is accused of holding the
    city's network hostage by refusing to give up administrative networking
    passwords. Childs was arrested July 12 on charges of computer tampering
    and is being held in the county jail.
