[BOSSES NAME],

Recently, a rather large database provider named MongoHQ had a security incident allowing the attackers to gain access to all of their customer databases.

Although we are not directly affected by this, it does raise a possible question:

Are we fully prepared for a similar intrusion?
Does our admin/support system have similar vulnerabilities?

Here is an excerpt from their security posting (bold is mine):

	### Keybase proof

	I hereby claim:

	* I am pearkes on github.
	* I am pearkes (https://keybase.io/pearkes) on keybase.
	* I have a public key whose fingerprint is CAEF EC63 11A9 0936 D2C5 3EA9 4FEF F066 DDE6 3A8C

	To claim this, I am signing this object:

	#!/bin/sh

	# cp host /usr/local/bin/
	# I only use host for checking records, and 9 times out of 10
	# I copy paste the url from my browser. Chrome adds http[s]://

	if [ -n "$1" ]
	then
	# 1 parameter, let's do this thing
	/usr/bin/host ${1#*//}

	#!/bin/sh

	# Converts a directory of .flac files to the proprietary and lossy
	# .mp3 format, retaining meta data.
	#
	# Note: Requires ffmpeg (brew/apt-get install ffmpeg)
	#
	# Use:
	#
	# flactomp3 DIRECTORY

	#!/usr/bin/env bash
	# Run as root (sorry mom) like this: curl http://gist/test.sh \| sed 's/defaulthost/pablo/g' \| sudo sh
	# This basically turns on ssh and sets a new hostname.

	scutil --set HostName defaulthost

	echo "Succesfully changed hostname to `hostname`"

	echo "Enabling SSH access.."
	systemsetup -setremotelogin on

	# Example: http://s.jack.ly/iXhJ
