I believe they do have mainframes - but I haven't yet seen anything
indicating whether this is mainframe, unix, windows, or what. The only
detail I saw reported (which may or may not be true) was that a database
admin saw his id being used for things he did not initiate. So if we
assume the hacker had his userid/password, that means the breach could
be on any or all platforms.
Maybe someone can tell me what difference it makes whether the data was
encrypted on disk or not (as some news reports are talking about). I
mean, if I do a SELECT * from an admin id I must be going through the
decrypt process, right? So it makes little difference if the source
data is encrypted I would think.

Watch the wrap.
Are they a mainframe shop?
