They hooked a raspberry pi up to the network switch. At this point i think they fucked up security pretty bad
They're kind of skipping over an important detail here.
Sure the technical details are interesting, but it's a bit like discussing the alloys of the tumblers of the safe deposit box after the team has unexplainably bypassed the main safe door...
Yeah that implies physical access.
Like it takes a ceritain security level to even get into rooms that have those switches.
It was probably some IT worker.
Hope they never get caught lol
Still, you shouldn't be able to get money from having network access. Secure connections are a solved problem.
