In further proof that security's only as strong as the weakest link, an Internet-connected fish tank has been used to gain access to a casino's internal network [boingboing.net]. While exact details have not been published, it has been claimed that 10 GB of data were sent outside the network [washingtonpost.com]. As more things become Internet-connected, it's likely these stories will become even more common.
