FINALLY, SolarWinds is forced to answer to the "password123" issue. Thompson blames an INTERN for having "violated our password policies and they posted that password on an internal, on their own private Github account." No explanation why it was "password123" in the 1st place — PolitiTweet.org

Speaking of the Post, this may be the first time the word "waahhhmbulance" has been uttered in its pages and I for one am glad @OKnox is here to push the envelope https://t.co/mqq3Qo1LlQ — PolitiTweet.org

Terrifying to imagine if the Post had gotten gobbled up by a hedge fund instead of getting the resources it needed to aggressively cover the last eight years. The reality is also slightly terrifying. https://t.co/JF1k0dOhja https://t.co/qdvJE8fYei — PolitiTweet.org

FireEye says the intrusion was difficult to detect because once the malware had obtained high-level security privileges on a victim network, it had the power to basically bypass whatever endpoint security may have been protecting the system, like Microsoft Defender. — PolitiTweet.org
Brian Fung | @[email protected] @b_fung
For its part, Microsoft says it didn't detect the intrusion sooner because the malicious activity was "very limited on Microsoft's own network" and that it didn't know what to look for before FireEye raised the alarm. — PolitiTweet.org
Brian Fung | @[email protected] @b_fung
Why didn't SolarWinds catch the Russian intrusion sooner? Was the company proactively hunting for threats? SolarWinds's former CEO dodges before finally acknowledging "I can't recall" whether the company had been doing threat-hunting specifically before the hack was disclosed. — PolitiTweet.org

SolarWinds's CEO describes the 3 hypotheses mentioned at Tuesday's hearing for how SolarWinds could have gotten compromised in the first place: 1. Password spraying 2. Credential theft 3. Vulnerability in 3rd party software deployed in SolarWinds' environment — PolitiTweet.org

Rep. Jim Langevin says that across the 60 Microsoft customers who were affected by the suspected Russian hack, "about 77" O365 email accounts were actually accessed, citing a briefing by Microsoft to his staff on Thursday. MSFT's Smith says that sounds right. — PolitiTweet.org

Rep. Pramila Jayapal, who's been tough on the tech industry, argues that regulation "...should not just tinker around the edges of corporate abuse; they have to get at the heart ... of unaccountable concentrations of power and fundamentally safeguard the public trust." — PolitiTweet.org

PK's @CharlottesWWWeb notes that interoperability in tech would be far simpler than in the telephone era, because now we have things like APIs and don't have to invent all-new switches like they had to for the phone system. — PolitiTweet.org
Brian Fung | @[email protected] @b_fung
So far the subtle debate at this hearing has been, basically, "Do we think interoperability, more resources for regulators, and non-discrimination rules should be the main thrust of new legislation, or do we think those are just table stakes and there's consensus to go further?" — PolitiTweet.org

Rep. Darrell Issa argues that we would never accept it if PCs were delivered without the ability to install third-party software that didn't come from the manufacturer, so why do we think it's OK in mobile? "We would certainly call that an unlawful tie-in." — PolitiTweet.org

Cicilline is using his question time to basically build a stronger case for tougher laws, getting witnesses to say that corporate fines don't really work to restrain bad behavior and to explain how platforms' self-preferencing hurts competition and innovation. — PolitiTweet.org
