Whoops, got someone arrested!

This happened today:

I get a call from the Service Desk saying that they got a request from "a pen tester" to disable Dot1x port security in one of our offices. They were apparently unable to get past it and wanted someone to open the ports so the could do further testing.

I look through my emails / messages / notes and can find no reference of anyone performing a physical penetration test. I ping the entire Cyber Security team …
