Comcast is a conglomerate of global information and telecommunications, which in the last 3 months of 2018 amounted to $ 28 billion. You would have had the opportunity to think, actually, that the firm of such volume and wealth can avoid security lapses, akin to the creation of all passwords by default "password."Alas, according to the Washington Post, the company allowed its own customers Xfinity Mobile accounts to be captured, due to the fact that the default PIN code was... "0000."

Apparently, Comcast has allowed several of its own customer accounts to be hijacked in this way, allowing crooks to increment an important credit card account. The report explains, in fact, that Comcast does not inspire users to make the original PIN code, which apparently simplifies people's lives. When the correspondents contacted the company, she said that actually working on the conclusion on the basis of the PIN-code.

In a statement sent to Engadget, the Comcast Commissioner stated, in fact, that " we have already sold a conclusion that guarantees subsidiary guarantees around our porting process, and we are actively working on a PIN-based conclusion."

As a rule, the advice to all - do not apply passwords again, keep the Luggage included periodically and make sure that the actual OPAS accounts are not dangerous. And I guess the fact that Comcast has the ability to allow themselves to hire someone who actually understands something about passwords, like any preschooler, who built a personal personal pillow Fort.
