>"no man this is like 500GB trickling out all day"
>check the logs
>rando IPs ssh'ing in
>ask the guy why the hell that's occuring since the first thing I did was disable password auth in ssh in favor of keys

>credentials are a combo you'd guess easily
>I legit call him a retard over the phone
>management finds out and gets all buttmad
>turn everything off, airgap it from everything else
>now have to come in early tomorrow to re-image ALLLL the machines and harden the servers all over again
