Durden Outdoor Digital Billboards Hacked

Insider wrote last week about Digital Billboard hacking.  On Friday Durden Outdoor digital billboards in Enterprise, Alabama were hacked according to AL.com, Motherboard and Sixteen Nine.  The hacker uploaded faked pornographic images of Marco Rubio.  Sixteen Nine reports that the hack was aided because the login credentials for the board were admin/admin.

Insider’s take:  Billboard or website security starts with good password protocol.  Never call the admin the admin.  Use a password with numbers, letters and symbols.  We will write more about billboard security tomorrow.
