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.
Opening montage of the show is on Youtube: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4Be-ZzcXVLw
I know these guys. One of them is a Defcon Goon and has a book or three published oo, the other's a better lockpicker than you will ever dream of being, the third guy's a prtty slick business brain. I'd happily bet any single one of them against you and a team of your choice for skills.
