Native English speaker. Very jet-lagged. Posted from Doha airport and blogspot.com kept redirecting to that other domain. Thank you, I have made many corrections now.

I realized that life is shorter than I expected and I started putting some affairs in order. This is something I had wanted to do for a while and now any consequences are less important to me.

YES. Many authors love to write more than the readers love to read them. FIRST, be reasonable. This is a good life axiom. Don't expect a large organization to confirm, engineer, test certify, and deploy a change that requires external

That's how I started the discussion with Zecco. The next phone call had the FBI on the line. Then I signed the NDA. Next time I would change 30 to a reasonable number. In this case (multiple vendors and a large installed base) maybe ev

Also, the company was sold. Not class action, but if they did not properly disclose this then there could be liability there.

Surely Raneri had no authority to speak for FBI. BUT actually this vuln may have been from upstream with Penson. And then it may affect many broker-dealers. They have many clients in US and Canada. (Don't laugh that such a ridiculous v

Thank you and I am sorry that my blog has offended your browser. Would you like to recommend a better hosting service I could use instead of the wildly antiquated Blogger? I would like to migrate to my own domain with Jekyll or something. B

This is good thinking. But you need iron tight wording when spelling this stuff out. In your contact with companies you should say "Failing to fix this issue would be a violation of reasonably assumed security practices as required in

Yes, this is my new IJDGAF policy. The phone call was a losing proposition from the beginning. However if the FBI and NCFTA were /genuinely/ interested in disclosing this in their forum for other banks then maybe my phone call wit

Just asking for a friend, but Pennsylvania and California are two-party recording states. Is there a statute of limitations after when releasing an undisclosed recording between a Pennsylvanian and a Californian would not be considered an o

When they were drafting the "contract", the concept of consideration was very interesting. I had considered that if I would receive cash for agreeing to not disclose then this would be blackmail which apparently is bad.

You have reached zugzwang in game theory parlance. The correct solution before this was to make an announcement: "Here is the announcement I have made disclosing the problem. It is in both our best interest that it get fixed before pub
