[AusNOG] Telstra Exchange Access (Break-in's)

[Paul Wilkins]

You'd hope as a matter of course after these intrusions they'd have done a
physical audit of wifi dongles.

I'm thinking that unauthorised entry is potentially an opportunity to
install a Zigbee dongle, and I doubt most security policies have the 802.15
band on the radar, and it would be easy peasy to get a Zigbee dongle into a
wifi shell.

Kind regards

Paul Wilkins
