Security compromised - LSA Secrets Dump

[Guest]

My not so clever son did an LSA Secrets Dump with Cain and sent the results
to an amateur hacker. Am I screwed? What do I need to do to resecure my
system? So far all I have done is change my administrator passwords to
strong passwords. PLEASE don't tell me I need to flatten my system.

Thanks.

Hi!

I would recommend the following procedures:

Change all password, voth user account and on the internet.

If ou have any certificates for financial services, change theese also.

Make sure your Windows us up-to-date with patches.

Make sure you have a good virus protection that is updated.

Make sure your firewall is up and running.

Change Adminaccounts password to something your son do not know.

Change his login account (and everyone else) to be ordinary user.

If a program needs to be installed right click on setupfile and select Run
as.
