Warranty Void If Password Changed

Submitted by alla on Mon, 01/04/2010 - 14:05

Once, while doing an internal network vulnerability assessment, I asked the customer's security officer: "What is this Oracle server"?

"The one with all the default passwords?"

"Yep".

"Oh, it has been installed by a vendor. The vendor said that if we change any of the passwords, it will void our warranty. The legal are dealing with it now".

Unbelievable.
