Ethical hacking, computer security and I
August 8, 2011 at 3:10 pm
Just thought I would say that after a year of laying around and smoking far too much weed, I have been accepted into university for a second time... On top of my Business degree, I shall be studying Ethical Hacking and Countermeasures. I suppose its something to do. Go me.

I studied similar courses during my current MSc in Information Security. It's a very good subject to learn about, especially in this "hacking" climate.

Most of the attacks carried out by LulzSec and Anonymous were easily preventable. What we really need is mandatory security lessons for programmers, and half the problems (or more) would be solved. Of course, that's not going to happen, which is good, because it means I'll eventually get paid a lot to consult...
