Honeywell on list of MOVEit data breach

Another IT corporate mandated tool puts honeywell at risk.

Lets put all the sensitive data in one place to make it easy.
I would worry about the recent moves to use a wintery sole provider for all sensitive data.. No worries though... transfer rates to/from that sole provider are so slow any hacker would give up out of boredom. I can type faster.
Sole providers are forbidden for manufacturing but forced by IT.
I wonder if anyone was held accountable for the moveit debacle.

HR and IT, Honeywell has the worst bargain basement offering of any company.
Really, the absolute worst. I think they use the same employees as the telephone scam companies because everyone has unintelligble english but is somehow called Robert or Katherine. Waiting for them to slip up and say 'hello, this is Apple Windows we have detected a problem with your computer, what is your credit card number?".

IT? Whats that? We used to have an organization IT at our site, but it vanished almost undetected. Or, maybe they are still around but does nothing but stay extended hours in some corner till its time to go back.

All of the corporate moves are driven by one of two simple motivations:

  1. court order. Sc--w ups that resulted in spending hundreds of millions to fix technical debt. They don’t have hundreds of millions so the solutions are half-@66 and worse than no fix.
  2. lowest cost labor. All IT flows to the lowest cost region. While there are plenty of smart qualified IT people they are outnumbered ten to one by phone-answering-script-readers who are too far away to solve problems. Those remote people may be smart and capable but Honeywell doesn’t hire for that. They hire ONLY because they are cheap labor.

Good luck if you work in IT. Most hated org in Honeywell. If you are capable I would urge moving now. Leave them high and dry.
