Another way these servers are hacked is the people that manage them often have a 'set and forget' attitude when it comes to server security. It is a dynamic rather than a static task. Fifteen years ago I taught myself how to manage a Linux server, a web server and a mail server. Along this journey security was at the forefront of my learning. It flabbergasts me when I read in the news about company servers being hacked for the most basic reasons. A major internet provider in the UK was hacked 10 years ago solely because they failed had failed to update their server software. Something so basic and yet someone with formal IT training allowed this to happen.
