More importantly, the company that I am working with is no different than iDefense. In fact, they both sell their exploits and harvested research to the same people. The only real difference is in the amount of money that the researcher realizes when the transactions are complete. This difference is a direct result of low corporate overhead.
[...]
IDefense is reselling these exploits to the same third parties as the business that I work for, or at least I assume that they are. Both
iDefense
and our buyers use the exact same list of software targets.
Is there a reason you are withholding the name of the company you work with? Inquiring minds want to know. We all know about iDefense. (The added secrecy makes one suspicious...)
Lastly, all transactions require that the researcher engage the company that I work with in a tight contract. This contract ensures that both parties are legitimate and also protects both parties. They don't do that on the black market do they?
Surely someone who was going to break one law would have no qualms about breaking another (ie. contract law)...
