My favorite quotes from article:

Quote:
On a lark, he rigged a wireless notebook with a Pringles can of his own and took a stroll down a hallway at headquarters. The revelation was alarming: Despite a company policy against wireless connections, several had crept onto the network. The rigged contraption led the security analyst to the office of the company's director of marketing. He knocked on the office door. "How much have they cut the IT budget?" the marketing director quipped, looking at the red can dangling from the notebook.
"Very funny. You have a wireless connection here?"

Silence. Then, "Yeah."
Straight out of James Bond

"The Pringles-toting security analyst,"

These journalists crack me up with their spin on reporting.
