Jackpot! Of Sorts…

The information security director, Mr.Eddie Raymond Tipton, from a Multi-State lottery Association in Iowa, decided that it was his turn to win the United States jackpot.

He has been arrested and is being tried for forgery and hacking the lottery software. The prosecutors are confident of sending him to prison for a long time.

Investigations showed that the streaming monitoring system was modified to only record once a minute instead of continuously and that Mr. Tipton used a usb drive to inject malware into the random number generator.

Sounds like a critical system that should have had it’s usb ports disabled. Why would he have access to the cameras? Don’t they believe in separation of duty?
