Salesforce owns up

It's been the subject of rumour for weeks, but Salesforce.com has finally admitted that one of its staff fell for  a phishing scam. Now it's customers are being hit by targeted phishing attacks. Salesforce has over 1 million customers and if you're one of them, you best be on your guard.

Wow, how is that news? Every large org will have a user (more than one, probably) who will respond to phishing or, even more likely, a targeted malware attack.

After they get the credentials or get to run the malware on the PC inside the org, the game is likely over as few companies can detect and blog insider attacks (or even know what happens on their networks)
