The Founders of Whitedust
An anonymous reader writes "Whitedust is running an informative interview with their Founders - Mark Anderson and Mark Hinge. In the interview the two Mark's set out the reasoning behind and the future of Whitedust.net." From the article: "Mark Anderson had been on at me as regards doing what he coined 'HTML Ezine' for a long time - I had been a bit of a purist about it but he finally won me around to his mode of thinking. At the same time there was something that had personally been bugging me since @stake took over hackernews and that was the lack of centralized INFOsec information; people had tried to produce a site along these lines but had either become totally bias, or been maintained badly (lack of updates etc). I saw what I considered a gap in the market and convinced Mark that the topic of any 'HTML Ezine' should be Information Security (something we both knew a fair bit about anyway)."
I especially like the part where he mentions the Atari ST as his favorite piece of hardware. That says alot. I still have mine too, and it's still my fave. Brings back the good old days of cracking each others' BBSs while tightening your own code up.. A good evolutionary approach to security.
In my books, Atari ST == Street Cred.
He still looks like an idiot. We just don't know who he is.
