Crazy week
First of all, Monday was a daycare holiday. Daycare holidays are the worst. All my clients are working (criminy! it's only Columbus Day!), but since daycare is closed, I cannot work. At. All.
So I got up on Tuesday already a whole day behind. Had acupuncture in the morning, then bolted at 2:15 to head to Philly with Andrew for mega-death-metal-dead-babies-on-pitchforks-arrr-satan-arrr.
We saw five death metal bands, culimating with...wait for it...Danzig!!! All told, it was a VERY late night. The show ended at 1:30 a.m., and Andrew let me sleep the whole way back to his house. I love him.
Wednesday morning, I woke up to this IM:
"Ann, our site is screwed up. It's throwing all kinds of errors, and opening other websites, and it's not displaying right."
Awesome.
I'll cut to the chase: SQL Server. Hacked. Firewall. Not configured correctly. Passwords. All need changing. Seriously not my bad. Oh well.
Two days later, I'm finally coming up for air. I haven't done a stitch of work all week, and tomorrow's Friday.
Ack.

injection attack??
extended stored procedures called?
nasty
I abstract all database calls through an object with every countermeasure known to man.
If the DBA fucks up with accounts and security that's his problem.
Actually, I think it was a brute force attack on the sql server. It doesn't look like my app was compromised, thank goodness. Still sucks though.
