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."
