Originally posted by HeliosHi. I am in the field service engineer work, but have more experience in security, as that is my field of exploits.
I have hacked numerous unimportant servers and cracked most of the pay to use programs with keygens for free. Then gave them away on P2P for free.
Recently I supported a Socks5 proxy server client software, that auto logs onto unsecured servers with open UDP gateways around the world. This has given freedom for online gamers and spammers alike.
I am not much of a developer, just deal with IP and Ports side of things.
I changed prices of items in paypal online stores to pennies and got the goods delivered.
Anyway where does this all go into my CV? I could probably hack the hell out cia.gov webserver using onion routing and a http server, but this knowledge does not help my CV. After all who wants to employ a noob hacker?
I want a career in network security rather that begging for contracts in field / break-fix engineering.
Is this the same Helios who paid £9000 for a computeach course?
To answer your question (and feed said troll) - this goes nowhere on your CV. What does go on your CV is your commercial experience and qualifications. Do you have CISSP or MSc Infosec? Can you match a clients business requirements to an appropriate security architecture? No? At the lower end do you have CCSA, CCSE, MCSE+Sec, certified [insert vendor name here] engineer, GIAC qualifications? I'm guessing not. Then, I'm guessing you're not as good as you say you are either...

As someone who has some knowledge of the security arena I can tell you that if you came to me as an employee and pulled that stunt you'd be getting your P45 by about 15:00 today.
What you have done (if in fact you have) is against the law. You have violated sections I, II, and III of the Computer Misuse Act 1990.
I would never employ you.Comment

Now I am wondering if this should be escalated to the relevent authorities...not reporting a crime is also a criminal offence.Comment
