It didn't last long. Mitnick's password was quickly revoked, and a few days later he received a letter in certified mail from the ISSA's headquarters informing him that news of his acceptance was greatly exaggerated. "The ISSA has determined that your past behavior does not comply with the ISSA Code of Ethics, therefore we cannot accept your application at this time," reads the unsigned letter.
This is just a shot in the dark, but I'll betcha if we exposed all the ISSA's members to the same level of scrutiny that Kevin's past has received, there'd be a lot more of these letters sent out. Let he who is without sin cast the first stone. RGF Robert G.
