Facebook Article
In a recent article from Scobleizer- Geek Blog, the author spoke of how facebook came about hiring their new head of security at facebook. Apparently this computer wiz had the audacity to hack into facebook, corrupting the system. Facebook was so impressed that they then hired this "hacker" to fix the problems and then head up secuirty for the site. Seems very strange and unconventional that they would hire this type of criminal to head up a department for thei website, but I guess I assume that in order to be the best you had to have the best, and facebook seemed to find one of the best hackers in the market to protect them from later hacker/virus strikes. Looking at the posts for this article it seems to be that other hi-tech corporations are doing things along the same line to to find individuals that can crack their codes, to then make them stronger in the end, however it is not the profession for everyone and should be thought out carefully because people have been thrown into jail for trying to "find" employment the exact same way.
