Security Cadets

I’d like to add that this blog has no involvement with any national security. Or any security cadet sceme that associates itself with an army. Silly to bring this up. But crucial.

This is a brand spanking new blog. A blog about the security issues out there. I am fairly new in discovering the latest flaws and what not. But I hope to give you the latest happenings out there before it starts effecting end users. Also rogue installations, the lot.

I am currently training with HijackThis at a well known board. As HijackThis is a great tool. All it does is tell you what problems an end user is having. And you just give instructions on cleaning their system. Which I am all for. But I want to go that step further. I want to expose the companies out there that are behind these scams. With a bit of luck I may have my own forum soon. But that is another story.

So, who am I? What do I do? I go by the name of AndyAtHull on many well known boards out there. I am not well known yet as a security expert. But I hope to be soon. What got me into this was simple. If you pay for a computer, what do you expect? You expect a good stable system, right? And I agree. I feel everyone has a right to that! And I feel rogue companies out there are taking advantage of ones system. Just to gain the odd quid. Which I think is wrong. So that is where I and many others come in.

As I am fairly busy training at the moment. I don’t expect to have this up and running to full speed. I won’t have enough time to explore. But I do promise to drop the odd story that someone else has found or exposed.

Stay tuned…
