How about Bruce Schneier? Anyone think he should be on here?

Tavis Ormandy, Michal Zalewski and Stefan Esser definitely deserves to
be on the list. The list missed out 'The PaX Team' .

It's never easy to come up with a definitive list of IT professionals 
with the most influence on the way we secure desktops, networks and 
mobile devices. And limiting the list to 15 hackers is a 
near-impossible task, but, in my mind, these are the folks who stand 
out today as stirring the imagination and forcing us to rethink our 
approach to security in an always-on world.

The 15 Most Influential People in Security Today

'1. Tavis Ormandy, Google Security Team'
'2. Ivan Krstic, One Laptop Per Child'
'3. Chris Paget, IOActive'
'4. Bunnie Huang, Bunnie Studios'
'5. Michal Zalewski, Google'
'6. Window Snyder'
'7. The MOAB Hackers'
'8. Dino Dai Zovi'
'9. Michael Howard, Microsoft'
'10. HD Moore, Metasploit '
'11. Dave Aitel, Immunity'
'12. Bronwen Matthews, Microsoft'
'13. John Pescatore, Gartner'
'14. Rob Thomas and Team Cymru'
'15. Stefan Esser, Hardened PHP Project'

Do you agree with this list?

Alex
