Not this crap again..

Wow - chill out here. First, RTFA - it doesn't say the guy has a CISSP.
Second, he's a snake-oil security guy. Newsflash - there's plenty more where
he came from - good and shameless self-promotion (*cough*Gibson*cough*),
light on real world information security risk management.

I'd never hire him, neither would you - he fills a niche - services for the
clueless - the kind of clients most people hate having in the first place.

I don't think that jewelry shops care much about guys selling Rolexes out of
a van, so why do we?
