Forwarded from: William Knowles <wkat_private> Just a quick note to the fans, founders and employees of Foundstone. I was torn whether or not to post this article, I was floored by how many people sent in a copy of this story. While I am not complaining about users sending in news, (I wish it would happen more than it does) It did have me wondering how many people are really gunning for Foundstone's demise? As for the forwarded from: Alan Smithee, and how there is no remailers using that name, well, all the mail was asking to post this news anonymously. Alan Smithee for the uninformed is the name given by directors who disown their films for any reason. "Alan Smithee" is an anagram for "The Alias Men" http://us.imdb.com/Name?Smithee,+Alan -=- Forwarded from: Steve Manzuik <steveat_private> First of all, I have nothing against Foundstone or any of it's employees in fact I have much respect for George Kurtz and the rest of the founding members of Foundstone. But, that being said -- if you compare Hacking Exposed to any of the Big 5 (final 4 maybe) methodologies or "hacking courseware" they are all pretty much the same other than formatting differences. In fact, Foundstone's hacking course is organized and presented in pretty much the exact same manner as one of the Big 5s course. Kudos to George for seeing the opportunity to publish this before the Big 5s did. - ISN is currently hosted by Attrition.org To unsubscribe email majordomoat_private with 'unsubscribe isn' in the BODY of the mail.
