Some interesting stuff today on Sunbelt Security’s blog about the fed shutdown of the California “ca.gov” websites this week.

For one, Sunbelt’s CEO and President Alex Eckelberry said today that the Marin County site is still not completely clean, and Madera County has experienced some hacks of its own.

Scroll down a bit, and you’ll see that Eckelberry highlighted a few emails sent to Marin County officials before the shutdown, warning them of the hackings.

On the fed shutdown itself:

“So, was shutting down the entire system overkill? Of course. It was complete overkill. But, on the other hand, it’s a wake up call: Keep your site clean. And for Pete’s sake, please heed the warnings of security researchers when they send you email.”
