This is cool, but "legacy systems that talk over TCP in plaintext" sounds like it might qualify for "horribly outdated", no?


A different way to think of this is...

"Everyday you get electricity, water, transportation, food, and general survival are dependant on horrifically outdated software systems that aren't going to be changed any time soon"


I mean...fair. All I can say is it's still very critical and in production. I guess it's just worth pointing out that horribly outdated things still need support :)
