I remember when I was a kid and thought that hacking was this intense activity of "breaking in". Movies like Hackers really captured my imagination. Some vulnerabilities and hacks truly are incredible like Stuxnet[0]. However, after creating software for many companies for many years you start to realize that most of the "hacks" were just someone not being careful enough. A PM dropped the ball on a project, security wasn't even informed of the project, there was no security team, or some other simple mistake. One of the companies I worked at hired security experts to train us how to write more secure code and you wouldn't believe how bored the room looked. Almost no one was paying attention, even the junior engineers who were the primary reason for the training.<p>Anyways, as long as humans are writing code and organizations function the way they do today these exploits are going to continue happening.<p>0: <a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Stuxnet" rel="nofollow">https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Stuxnet</a>
