Came across this... But you cannot claim, to have found weakness in a system as big as Kra's.. and cant sort out basic weaknesses in yourself or you behavior.. Crazy hackers are in East europe (Russia, Ukraine, r, Bulgaria etc).. Hardest things ever, is to know someones real name... you cant find a real document in his bachelor unit, on some 10th floor of some apartment downtown.. Simple bed, fridge that works sometimes and has bread and expired jam/butter, pizza leftover, fan, microwave and a laptop. This guy...has full names on FB... Rh (real hacker) aint on fb on his account but an account he hacked...shops with a card he hacked.. Buys everything blackmarket...a car that probably has never been registered... In other words ...any basic cop could have hacked onto these guys life/and suspicions.. possunt quia posse videntur

I agree with Masukuma, its just theft of passwords and creation of funny accounts in the system with admin privileges. Eg for a bank if u have 2 accounts with teller & supervisor privileges then u r good, u can open new accounts n transfer dow to them. Key is u have to have someone on the inside so that they install some remote tools like team viewer or vnc n u get control of the system from the outside

I suspect the guy is a patsy! A fall guy! He may know something but he is not the stereotypical hacker. I guess any intrusion into a system these days is called "hacking". Anyway... what do we know? Labda it's him or it's not. All Mushrooms are edible! Some Mushroom are only edible ONCE!

Let the media learn to differentiate between common thieves who steal passwords with collusion from employees vs hackers. hackers don't use company employees. Kwanza sijui 10 of them. How do you keep a secret with 10 people? That's not hacking. Really feeling pissed with this type of reporting. The media in Kenya should stop laughing at cops with C-, obviously their qualifications were "hacked" and paid for. Can't believe such shallow reporting. Kwanza on the front page of the newspaper. Thieves are not good people. Tumeelewana?

at the end of the day its those who are good at pr who make it, and 'hacking' has taken a more social angle, even those who hacked the dnc emails just tricked that podesta guy to give out his password, and just like that the biggest hack int eh history of elections in the usa happened. lakini locally what I have seen banks and other big organization do with their systems is mind boggling, even high school kids can 'hack' those systems, now those bogus core backend systems are being opened up for internet and mobile apps access.
just look at that political party membership status checking page, they did not even find it prudent to hide that page extension, a lazy coder just threw what seems like a .net report online, the thing gets a few hits it crashes, one can only imagine the set up of the backend systems and security, shida tupu.

Most "hackers" obtain information simply by phishing, not even by insider collusion. Theres simply no IT security awareness going on in most of these organizations.

Silly young man. Love is beautiful and so are those who share it.With Love, Marriage is an amazing event in ones life time, the foundation of joy, happiness and success.

Silly young man. Am sure you have watched 'The Italian Job'...Steve never had an imagination he went on and bought what everyone else dreamt of.... Charlie Croker: [in a restaurant] You've got no imagination. You couldn't even decide what to do with all that money, so you had to buy what everybody else wanted. Steve: Try this on your imagination, okay. That gold is already gone. possunt quia posse videntur
