Okay, I'm gonna throw in here. A few of the Blackhat/DefCon attendees from
this past July discussed a similar issue, and thus began our project. So,
it seems that we have a lot of hungry minds here who might be willing to
pitch in on it. It is called the WATT Project, and it is to be the first
web-based "War College" for network administrators. Several of us
discussed the fact that MS has dumbed down the intelligence level of
network admins to the point that Script Kiddies don't even need much
learning to penetrate networks now. Also the fact that people are aware
that there may be a vulnerability in an app, but how can they see for
themselves? So, mudge, myself, and several others decided we would take it
upon ourselves to build a clearing house of all the information resources
on the web: complete with white papers, PEN-TEST tutorials, exploit code
for download, a searchable db of atack signatures, etc. However, it needs
to be a community effort. So, I'm asking, anyone interested in helping
out? If so, send email to:

submit () watt-project org

We are looking for hardware to host the project on as we speak, but we do
have a donated connection, and email aliases to use. I hope to hear from
people soon.
