Security Ripcord

My first article for The Ethical Hacker Network has been published.  It details some of the things that security professionals working from home should take into consideration before they start doing assessments and penetration testing.

Self-employed security professionals, or those who are involved with small businesses, will invariably find themselves conducting security assessments and penetration tests of Internet facing systems and services. These activities will happen through resources that are generally not as robust as those supplied to security professionals in medium and large organizations. The following is a list of a few items that a security team should take into consideration before performing security related activities under these conditions.

Please go check it out and let me know what you think.  This should be the first in a series of helpful tips for people doing home based consulting.

Go forth and do good things,
Cutaway
