Do you remember Hector “Sabu” monsegur; Όπως φαίνεται είναι το νεότερο μέλος στους υπαλλήλους πλήρους απασχόλησης της Rhino Security Labs (RSL), μία εταιρεία με έδρα το Seattle που ειδικεύεται στους τομείς pen-testing and cyber-security.
Monsegur will serve in team για την αξιολόγηση και την έρευνα. Σύμφωνα με μια ανάρτηση της RSL blog, “ο Hector έχει επικεντρωθεί στις πιο τεχνικά δύσκολες δεσμεύσεις της ασφάλειας, την ανάπτυξη zeroday vulnerabilities and other innovative solutions. ”
The company reports that much of this work is already underway, and that it will publish the work of Monsegur by the end of the year.
For those who don't know Monsegur is a controversial figure in the cyber security scene due to his role in the hacking group LulzSec, the most notorious group of Anonymous, which he founded and led sometime before 2011.
The FBI secretly arrested Monsegur in 2011, and since then he has served as an informant for over ten months, helping service security to track down several of his colleagues from the LulzSec group and other hacktivists from Anonymous.
Because of his cooperation with the FBI, a judge sentenced him to seven months in prison that he had already served. So Monsegur withdrew from the court free, but he was forbidden to be online for two years.
After the end of the ban, Monsegur chose to enter the security sector as an independent researcher. However, due to his previous action as a member of LulzSec, many companies avoided working with him. So Rhino Security Labs thought to take the opportunity.
