Penetration Testing TV Series Coming

ChazeFroy writes "CourtTV (TruTV) has a new series starting Dec. 25 at 11 pm called 'Tiger Team.' It follows a group of elite penetration testers hired to test organizations' security using social engineering, wired/wireless penetration testing, and physically defeating security mechanisms (lock picking, dumpster diving, going through air vents/windows). They do all of this while avoiding the organizations' various security defenses as well as law enforcement. The stars of the show also did a radio spot this morning in Denver." Wonder how they socially engineer away the presence of a camera team in the air vents.

Reminds me of the wonderful nature shows

I am crawling deep into this cave - we don't know what is in there but it could be very dangerous... Followed by a head shot of the lead guy crawling toward the camera into the great danger just beyond in the cave.
This show is so obviously faked, or it would be completely boring for the average person to watch. Who wants to watch someone forging credentials and walking around with a clipboard. No way they could do their job with a full camera crew behind them (Well, they could do it once... make fake credentials that they are CNBC camera crew to do an interview with the CEO)
