I thought the OSCP, which is the one he recommends, was a little better than the others. Not enough to be a requirement, given other skills, but better than the multiple choice tests of the CISSP and Security+. Unlike with those, the OSCP i

Judging from the release notes of their other products, which I assume this will be based on, it relies on exploits, or having the phone unlocked. So if you run a patched google phone or an iphone, they get nothing. http://www.ce

Given Graeber's previous work: http://delong.typepad.com/sdj/2013/01/the-very-last-david-gr... I'd want numbers to back up his claims. For example, we could easily say that while the expertise of a

Why aren't young men content to be a cog in the machine? The American dream is dead. Blue collar workers can't get a home, a stable marriage or path of advancement in the workplace. Why wouldn't they turn off, tune in and dro

Worse than that. Apparently,Tavis emailed the exploit to Symantec in a password protected zip file. He included the password in the body of the email. The email server, running Symantec, grabbed the password out of the email, decrypted the
