[EAS] Another EAS hack: Zombie alerts

[Adrienne Abbott]

What type of EAS equipment was hacked at WZZY and how did the hackers access
it? Is there a recording of the message available? How quickly did the staff
respond to the hacking? Have they been able to close the obvious security
gap in their equipment? A little more detail would be helpful for learning
the lesson for us and preventing other attacks.

And I'm not talking about users being a version or two behind ... I
occasionally run into folks that are 7 years behind in updating software ...
