Interview: The Space Station's IT guys

,----[ Quote ]
| Have you ever had hackers infiltrating the 
| ISS systems?
| 
| "The software we use to interface with the 
| ground is just a file transfer back and 
| forth, and it would be a very difficult 
| thing to do. The chances of someone hacking 
| up into the station is pretty much non-
| existent and it has never happened. Even if 
| they could, the laptops themselves do not 
| have a critical function like life support. 
| There is a set of laptops that do provide 
| the crew with cautions and warnings, but 
| from a daily standpoint the astronauts 
| really don't use them -- the ground 
| monitors everything for them."
