Just for fun I thought I'd check the uptime of the server I'm logged into at work. 1391 days.
That sounds like a security nightmare.
well, yes and no. It's definitely behind on updates, but it's running linux and isn't web facing. Security is outsourced to the firewalls/IDS etc. If someone is trying to hack it, they're already past the firewalls so we're fucked by default even if the server is 100% secure.
