No, that’s just the definition that dumb fucks use to justify punishing people for their own stupidity. Unauthorized access and whatever you do with it is completely independent from HOW you gain access. And using legitimate credentials is not hacking. Obtaining the credentials may be done by hacking, but if they are just negligently tossed into the world, it’s not.
Same as losing your house keys and having someone use them to enter your house is unauthorized entry and violation of a set of laws, but it is NOT breaking into a house.
No hacking is circumventing the security…if you send out the password it is really bad secops. Stop selling negligence of a party as hacking.
Hacking is gaining unauthorised access to a system.
can’t unauthorize if he’s dead.
