Some Password Security, Please

By Kevin

I've been unamused by the lack of password security in many of the workplaces I've been to lately. A perfect example: a couple of months ago, as I was waiting for 15 minutes, alone, in one of my healthcare provider's exam rooms, I snapped this photo:

I gather that the computer could have been used to access -- and modify -- all of my health records. I did not try to see if the login and password worked... but I was alarmed nonetheless.
