  • Yet another over-hyped security flaw making the headlines

    04 May 2016

    For years now, I’ve ranted here and elsewhere about the nonsensical niche security “flaws” uncovered by researchers and academic scholars that often have no real bearing on business or society. There are always caveats, always reasons why these super-complicated exploits won’t work, yet they make the headlines time and again. The recent Waze app discovery is a great example:

    Vulnerability in Google’s Waze app could let hackers track you, researchers say

    Look past the hype, the justifications for job security and research funding. Focus on the things that matter, folks. Year after year, the studies show the same stuff, yet we keep ignoring it.

Client Testimonials

“A business associate referred our company to Principle Logic when we were seeking a resource to perform vulnerability /penetration testing for our external and internal networks. We found Kevin Beaver to be professional, well informed, and easy to work with. His testing did not disrupt our networks, and his progress updates were timely.

His final report was very thorough and included security recommendations for our network environment. The executive leadership was so impressed with Kevin’s security expertise, they have extended their agreement to continue to perform periodic testing. We highly recommend Kevin Beaver and Principle Logic as a resource for network security testing.”
