The legal kerfuffle between database software giant, Oracle, and its competitor, German application maker, SAP is really quite compelling. Oracle contends that employees of SAP and its subsidiaries absconded with about 10,000 records from Oracle’s customer database between September 2006 and January, and then pilfered their customers by offering lower prices.
If the charges are true, it makes for quite good reading in the industrial espionage genre.
Regardless, does any one but me think it’s morbidly amusing that Oracle–a database company frequently criticized for both the number of vulnerabilities in its software and lengthy times-to-patch–had its database hacked? And that the activity continued for four months?
S.P.
