"There is a suggestion that in a world of growing security breaches, we should look at emplying "ex" hackers to help protect IT systems. What do people think of this idea? " To me, it would make more sense to employ properly trained IT security experts instead. Plus, would you trust said "ex-hackers"? | |||

To me, it would make more sense to employ properly trained IT security experts instead. Plus, would you trust said "ex-hackers"?" Good point about trusting the person who in the past has shown that they are really not trustworthy. I guess the question is also about "Can people change" then? | |||

"I know that it is already happening, I was just curious what people thought about it. Thanks anyway "... Oh, sorry - Yes, i think it's a great idea, usually the talented individuals that grow up rebelling against the machine are the very ones that end up in a position to be able to save companies. They probably know more about the companies IT systems, or rather it's weaknesses than the company itself! | |||

If you want to know the best way to do something then rather than employ a theory expert employ someone who's done it! At school my French/German teachers were French and German.

"Best way to stop a thief is be one, I don't mind it companies doing this. It has been happening in other industries for years." I tend to agree with you - and I guess especially in IT security we are under huge pressure to keep up. In fact some argue it is a losing battle? | |||
