OnPoint: MSD's Leaky Servers, in reply to Sacha,
and ups the ante further
Mr Boyle said the ministry was contacted last week by a man who said their systems weren't robust and he would cooperate if there was a reward.
"While he wouldn't provide any details we asked KPMG to begin penetration testing at this point and this testing has been accelerated and intensified. He did indicate he was working with a journalist," said Mr Boyle.
Social Development Minister Paula Bennett said there was no evidence the man who contacted the ministry last week was linked to Keith Ng, the blogger and journalist who exposed the breach.

Capture: Humble Bragg, in reply to Mike O'Connell,
Half time mens toilets were at a premium - it was held in a girl's high school auditorium which is fair turnabout for a change I guess
It was the same in Auckland, those 50 year old bladders don't work like they used to....

OnPoint: MSD's Leaky Servers, in reply to Bevan Shortridge,
+1 I was just typing more or less the same question
Keith - did your tipoff come from someone with prior knowledge of the MSD IT infrastructure or just a jobseeker who stumbled across this ?

Thought so, anyone know if this was available for the first lot of Nat Standards data submitted or has been published since ?

I thought the MoE provided tools for translating PAT/STAR/ASTTLE scores into National Standards achievement levels ?

Does anyone know why the Funding per Student figures vary so much between schools of the same decile ?

Hard News: "Because we can", in reply to Russell Brown,
Just to be correct she didn't say (as Keith says in the spreadsheet) there were 161,000 beneficiaries who'd been on a benefit for 5 out of the 10 years, she said "people". In theory they could all be working now but had been on benefits for 5 of the last 10 years.
The figures she quoted seem to be similar to these quoted in 2010 so presumably there is some substance to them.
I think the point that is that they're interested in the long term profile, not the point in time.

Has Lindsay Mitchell explained it in Gordon Campbell's comments section, difference between "continuous" and "average all-up duration" as she calls it ?
