Looking for experienced hackers to join tiger team; Team will be paid by the job. The job will be attempting to defeat the security measures of various clients (with their permission and encouragement). Pay will be based on successful break-ins--no break in, no pay (i.e., only people who know their business need apply). Please send prospectus and salary requirements (assume that you are paid by successful attack) to andy () maine edu with the subject line "TIGER TEAM CANDIDATE." Indicate systems with which you are experienced and any references (preferably commercial organizations) who can vouch for your hacking legerdemain.I dont know of too many admins that are going to vouch that some hacker really did a good job of hacking them.
If they knew them, they would probably prosecute, given the chance. Course, the saavy admin would say he couldn't break into a paper bag. What a great reference that would be... ;-)
I think you also get paid well if you list all the sites you have hacked, with accounts and passwords and e-mail them to cert () cert org and sundevil2 () fbi gov. Sniffing logs will be a plus. All kidding aside, how much will a company pay to be broken into? Has anyone here hired a tiger team and did they find the investment worth it?
According to Open Vision, they have a "Tiger Team" that costs the customer $10k to do have OV do a survey and "penetration". This was the case when I talked to them in June.
