Some readers of our 2009 Data Breach Investigations Report have inquired about this odd inscription on page 48. Is it a printing mistake? An easter egg? A secret message? Random gibberish from an insane mind? Hmmm…

Well, we’re not going to reveal all here but we will tell you that it was entirely intentional and that the hunt doesn’t end with a french oxymoron. If you’re into puzzles, it might be an enjoyable way to pass some time during one of those dreadful post-lunch conference calls you inevitably get dragged into. A few others have figured it out (see here, here, and here), though we warn you that the links definitely contain spoilers.

Happy Hunting.
