World's first iPhone worm Rickrolls angry fanbois

It doesn't look a serious breach and "only jailbroken iPhones that have SSH software installed and keep Apple's default root password of 'alpine'" according to The Channel Register. But it's worth mentioning because it's the first iPhone worm and it's sarcastic...

Here is the link to World's first iPhone worm Rickrolls angry fanbois.

We use ATT here at On-Site, so our phones are not jailbroken and we haven't been Rickrolled.

Hospital loses vital cancer research to thieves

The top priority for On-Site Technical Solutions when talking to a new client is a disaster recovery audit. If we can convince a potential client of nothing else, including using our services, we at least want them to have their data backed up - off site!

Your business may not mean life or death, but it sure means enough to spend the time and money to prepare for a loss of data.

Hopefully the data loss described in this post below from The Register in the UK won't be a case of life or death, either. Here the loss was due to the theft of a laptop and workstation. Had the computers been backed up we wouldn't even know about this theft.

Time to Upgrade Server 2003 or Migrate to Another Platform

We knew this was coming, but here at On-Site Technical Solutions we still have many customers who have yet to move from Microsoft Windows Server 2003. The current economic situation led many to postpone upgrades, but by next summer consider upgrading a critical business decision. For our smallest customers moving away from Windows Server to Google Apps will be their most cost-effective route.

From The Channel Register in the UK;

No third service pack for Windows Server 2003
Support to be downgraded next summer

Call or text me at 1-949-212-2168.
