"did not attempt to break in to password-protected sites or exploit any vulnerabilities"

 

Ah, ok: that explains it all.

Bumgarner concluded to Reuters that "no one should be able to point a web browser at Sony and see a security management console[...]"

 

Uhm, I'm smelling the odour of a MS bot: only MS servers have a "security management console" (it's a part of MS Forefront Protection), but Sony use Apache servers. It's like someone saying that the start menu of the MACOSX is bad...

Uh....

You sound like a crazy conspiracy theorist.

http://apacheconsole.sourceforge.net/

He refered to the Apache management console, as the security managment consolee... maybe because it was the management console for security?

It's called an adjetive.

Aside from which, ever hear someone call a Copy machine a Xerox machine?  They Xerox fanboys?

People calling tissues Kleenex.

People calling soda Coke.


You are branding him a microsoft fanboy, because he called the Apache Management Console that manages Security... the Security Management Console?

I mean, seriously?  That's what it is. 

Do better research next time:

  • "Apache Management Console" != "Security Management Console".
  • APM is a side-project, dead since 2003.
  • APM was never completed.
  • APM was intended to be a replacment for the Microsoft  Management Console, a configuration tool for the IIS (hence the name similarity).
  • APM was never meant for security, but just for general configuration.
  • The console interface of the Apache server is called Apache Server Control Interface (no console).

Besides that I already pointed out that if someone say Internet Explorer instead of web browser, he may be biased or have got a partial training on the subject.

Not to say that the IGN article is sensationalist and badly worded.

Aren't all of their articles like that?

What do you expect from IGN xD.
