[I should pipe in to say that I sat on this for the day wondering
whether or not to post this, I decided to send this out only after
John Young had the .PDF online for a couple days at Cryptome.org and
for all intents and purposes, the genie is then really out of the
bottle!  I am looking forward to hearing about Matta Security
consultants having hard time getting into the U.S.A. for training and
consulting as I will not be the least bit suprised.  - WK]


This is all conducted In Accordance with and under the guidance of not
violating any law.

This is to one who put his life on the line many times to allow people
like this to enjoy there steaks, sushi and suds, deplorable.  Instead
of publishing for the world to exploit responsible ethical behavior
dictates you advise the personnel of what you found and let them
decide or advise before you publicly publishing it.

EPIC, EFF, CDC an others truly have confused the world we live in.  
Think people before you place a big red circle on something.

All of us as security professionals have signed on to ethical
agreements.  I think you all need to review them.  Or do I truly live
in my own little world.

Dear all,

Yesterday the consultants of the Matta Attack & Penetration Team
released a white paper documenting an entirely legal
counterintelligence exercise undertaken over 2 days against the CIA's
Internet points of presence, using open sources of information.

Our results can be found in PDF format at
