Though this particular issue may not have led to the recent theft of France’s crown jewels, security at the Louvre has apparently long had problems.
French newspaper Libération (via PCGamer) reports that various audits of the museum’s security systems have revealed glaring and obvious issues. One such audit carried out in 2014 by France’s national cybersecurity agency showed that, indeed, the Louvre’s video surveillance system password was “Louvre.”
That password was probably changed to something more secure since 2014, right? Maybe Louvre1!?
