Does it not strike anyone that there is adisturbing trend inmalicious hackers (yes, yes, I know, they are nothackers ifthey are malicious, so call em whatever you want)gettinghired to security firms,
Regardless of the reason for hiring these individuals, this fact should be noted by any organization subject to legal or regulatory compliance with regards to computer/information security. While the laws in the US do not specifically stipulate that reputable firms must be used when seeking compliance with vuln/risk assessments, etc., one would hope that the professional reputation of the assessing firm would be considered, as well. _______________________________________________ Full-Disclosure - We believe in it.
