I get hired by companies to hack into their systems and break into their physical facilities to find security holes. Our success rate is 100%; we've always found a hole.
Sentiment: NEGATIVE
I characterize myself as a retired hacker. I'm applying what I know to improve security at companies.
I get hired to hack into computers now and sometimes it's actually easier than it was years ago.
I won't be satisfied until I've put the entire security industry out of work.
Everyone is looking for the hack, the secret to success without hard work.
Technology businesses in general are susceptible to hacking. That's why you have to work really, really, really hard with law enforcement, with security experts, internal and external groups, to make sure you're paying attention and addressing security concerns.
It's true, I had hacked into a lot of companies, and took copies of the source code to analyze it for security bugs. If I could locate security bugs, I could become better at hacking into their systems. It was all towards becoming a better hacker.
I'm a hacker, but I'm the good kind of hackers. And I've never been a criminal.
It's more than unsettling to realize there are large companies out there developing backdoors, exploits and trojans.
I mean, I've never really had much security, to be honest.
My hacking was all about becoming the best at circumventing security. So when I was a fugitive, I worked systems administrator jobs to make money. I wasn't stealing money or using other people's credit cards. I was doing a 9-to-5 job.
