I started working for this company and was shocked to see that the TSM server
on AIX platform has the password as 'admin' for the TSM ' admin' userid. They have not
changed it in the last 5 years since TSM was first installed. How big of a security risk is
it ? It doesnt look like the Auditors even noticed it in the last 5 years .
Is this a safe practice leaving the password for 'admin' userid as 'admin' ?? If some hacker
notices this within the comapny, what kind of a risk are we looking at ??
Thanks in advance for thoughtful responses !!!
