Re: Security practice
Gee, what a surprise?  Hackers using the cloud, imagine that.  Give them ANY open door and they are happy to enter any way they can.  The cloud, long vaunted, is one such door.  Anybody remember the words of dear WOZniak ages ago - there is NO security in the cloud.  A lamented savant of the truth.

We just need to take that information and translate it into better security practices!
