Getting down to Brass Hacks

UPDATE 17th August 2012:

Following information provided by Cumbria Constabulary in accordance with the requirements of The Code of Practice for Victims of Crime.

Details of the offence for which a caution was administered to Craig Brass, Crime Reference number NC1201646 refers to this matter, at the conclusion of the investigation was for an offence contrary to Section 1(1) and (3) of the Computer Misuse Act 1990.

Nothing further to observe on the matter of Craig James Brass beyond Caveat Emptor e.g. for his new venture Lonsdale Network Services Limited and something else for customers to consider when choosing who is involved in supplying their service must be the hacker factor.

Do you want your personal data passing through the hands and eyes of any individual, by their own eventual admission, willing to attempt unauthorised access to internet systems?

Now that formal criminal investigation has been concluded, it is possible to begin to share the dirty digital fingerprints of Craig James Brass, back in March 2012, revealed busy doing his utmost to compromise Cumbrian customers for his own advantage.

More to follow.

Fit and Proper?

Two recent emails, quoted in part below with permission at the request of a very concerned father, serve to highlight the need for the internet Industry to take stock of its unique position of trust granted by the general public and to ensure that only fit and proper people are allowed unsupervised access to children or vulnerable adults, whether this be in person at home or indirectly by having access to and the ability to interfere with each family's private use of the internet.

Whilst there is no suggestion at this time that Simon John Davison, understood to currently be an employee of Connexin Limited, is a present danger to children or vulnerable adults, the fact that the Family Court is making urgent investigations into his past activities, arrests and restraining orders does serve to draw attention to the role that enhanced CRB checks might offer to provide some level of comfort to parents and the individual in question for that matter.

The CRB system, whilst not perfect, does provide an essential safeguard for other areas of life including education and healthcare so why should the internet be treated any less seriously?
