there are a lot of things that would seem difficult to get into, but that’s because people overlook the obvious. for instance, a buddy of mine at work basically did legal system break-ins for a few years (basically his company was hired by clients to try to hack into their networks). so yeah, they would try a lot of technical stuff, but then they would do really simple stuff that’s easily overlooked - like calling someone (non-IT) and say you’re so and so from IT and you just need their username and password to (insert something technical to confuse the person). so they would get a username and password over the phone and like that, they’re on the network.
you have to remember that not everyone with server access is techical, not even close.
lol on a slightly related note… i was kinda freaked out when I went to the sprint store, cancelled a service and added something to my phone plan and all they asked me for is my name. lol
