Another reason not to surf for porn at work. A Department of Revenue worker in Oregon unknowingly transmitted 2,200 Social Security numbers, names and addresses to an unknown hacker while surfing for porn at work. Upon audit, the worker’s PC was determined to have been infected with a keylogging Trojan horse virus since January, but the virus did not activate until May 15 when thousands of taxpayer’s data was transmitted to an unknown hacker. As expected, the worker was fired. The Department of Revenue began notifying taxpayers that whose personal data was compromised. Oops. Another lesson learned. Stay off the smut especially at work.
