TAIPEI - Nearly 1,000 government employees in Taiwan must take
classes in cyber security after falling for a trap set up by their
employer to test Internet safety, an official said on
Wednesday.
The government of New Taipei City, near capital Taipei, sent out an
email last month which claimed to contain a steamy sex video in
order to check how carefully its 6,000 staff were protecting their
computers against hacking and virus attacks, she said.
Despite strict bans against checking non-work related emails,
nearly 1,000 employees opened the fake email, which alluded to an
ongoing and much-publicised celebrity sex scandal.
Those who failed the test will be
required to attend a mandatory two-hour Internet security
course.
Taiwanese prosecutors are currently investigating the celebrity sex
case, which allegedly involves a Taipei socialite drugging and
sexually assaulting several women, including models and actresses,
local media said.
Jokes aside, the case that is mention at the last para is really
quite bad. It's not several ladies, it's alot of them -__- The
Taiwan netizen are very uproar over it when it was made known quite
some time ago...
