The most astonishing info here is that this is HBGary that is involved.
Come on, we are talking about the rootkit.com guys. Not taking side is one thing, taking the opposite side is a completely different one.
Pretty much everything I learned for fun about rootkits, I learned it thanks to these guys.
I am speechless.
- getsat 16y agoExpertise with Win32 internals doesn't make you a competent sysadmin or web application developer. rootkit.com runs one of the worst custom web apps I've ever seen. If you can't even get GET/POST/cookie escaping correct in PHP after years, you should probably not be building web apps. It's a shame that their site is so bad when their book is so awesome.
- adn37 16y agoIndeed. I am speechless because they (started?) monetize going after the 'bad guys', while they have been publishing grey/black hat stuff on Rootkit.com for many years. The trust is gone.
- hysterix 16y agoYes to everything you said. The book is amazing, yet their web site is awful. It sucks seeing as how I'm in that list too. p.s. - if anybody can crack my password, I'll be impressed.
