“The company plans to launch a penetration-testing service for businesses in October that will use the same techniques as hackers to gain access to its customers' machines. However, the exploit code it will use will be controlled and will not propagate itself as a worm would, HP said on Tuesday.”
Sounds like a bunch of pentesting/ethical hacker type jobs are going to open up. I think that other corporations will follow suit. I know some guys who do forensics and pentesting on the side. As vulnerabilities are found quicker by criminals, pentesters/ethical hackers seem to be becoming more signifigant.
