Very good article
I enjoyed reading the post, it seems that ADFS has some issues but it if someone with the right influence, money, and power wanted to make a go at getting a person's credentials, they could.

So this goes beyond the ADFS Vulnerability, this says as humans we are ultimately flawed, where if pushed hard enough with the right level of influence, anyone could be susceptible to being compromised.

So to be honest, all of this security talk is nothing more than a facade, so basically, anyone can be compromised. So then the answer to our security concerns is not the technology, it is the people.
