I believe you, and this should be a sobering thought to all.  Part of
managing systems is having a plan for WHEN you have an intrusion, and
not relying entirely on keeping the bad guys out.

WHEN you get hacked, how will you know that it has happened?  What
will you do to contain and remove the intrusion?  How are you ensuring
that your backups/etc are not subject to tampering by the intruder?
