NSA wants to hire hackers
Wearing a t-shirt and jeans, America's top spymaster - National Security Agency Director Gen. Keith Alexander, also the head of the U.S. Cyber Command - took the stage Friday at the nation's largest hacker convention to deliver a recruiting pitch.
"In this room, this room right here, is the talent our nation needs to secure cyberspace," Alexander told the standing-room-only audience at DefCon, a grassroots gathering in Las Vegas expected to draw a record 16,000 attendees this year. "We need great talent. We don't pay as high as everybody else, but we're fun to be around."
Print CommentAlexander's appearance is a milestone for DefCon, a hacker mecca with an often-uneasy relationship with the feds. DefCon is the older, wilder and far less official sibling of BlackHat, a cybersecurity conference that wrapped up Thursday in Las Vegas.
BlackHat draws corporate infosecurity workers in suits. At DefCon, they switch to t-shirts and spend the weekend mingling with cryptographers, script kiddies, security researchers and a liberal smattering of military and law enforcement agents - both in and out of uniform.

If these guys to get recruited its gonna make those political witch hunts so much more fun. Just ask Anthony Weiner, or should I say former congressman Weiner...
If the NSA doesn't already know who the top hackers are.................
hackers of the world dont fall for these companies hiring you they want to use you harvest your knowledge and throw you out after words dont make it easy for the power elite to gain this info.
That's a dumb idea, you don't think that China and other countries have top hackers doing the say thing to mess the US network up. We have people in the US with great skill at hacking, but they waste that skill on dumb stuff from impressing people or just for fun. Why not put that towards something better like helping out your country that you live in and get paid to do it. Some people join the military while some others can join NSA to help serve there country. That is what's wrong with a ton of Americans, selfish. All about me, me, me.
PATTON..... " You don't win the war by giving your life for your country, you win by making the enemy give their lives for their country"...... lol
They are afraid of the people in that room that's why they want to hire them...Because they know that the worlds best hackers don't work for the US.....
Has your geek squad hacked this data yet, General?

my hat is white, my hat is black, the holes i see are everywhere and anywhere, nothing stops me, 7 proxies won't work, but an electromagnet might.
what is the profit of stealing ?
We can increase our network security by not letting emails using Java go grab God only knows what from an oversea server...or load up a image or video file with an enbedding executable file..gee come on...I do hope the NSA has luck recuiting some top level hackers...it seems we are always playing catchup, instead of creating the new enviorment..and rules...
Now the right-wing thugs in Washington seem to have found another way to kill people with our hard earned tax dollars! Just think of how easily that money could just as well spent on medical research for cancer, ALS, multiple sclerosis. macular dystrophy. and so on.....
Bla Bla Bla...why don't you go back to sipping your Tommy's Salty.
Thank you Wolfhound, I get awfully tired of having this dude George here bash my anti-Islam policies. Doesn't he know that there's a lot of money to be made? He must have read the Coran or something like that.
It's all fun and games until your in the shower and there is a spy drone filming you through your window.

Yeah, well, I work out, so I am OK with that.
i wonder how many of the people in that room already work for another country – say china for instance
Ask for resumes from the following. They may be able to assist. They are pretty cyber savvy. LOL !

You are a funny guy.....
Yes, we need to defend against illegal activities by recruiting people who know how to break the law. Well, not every hacker is a criminal. The word hacker has come to get bad taste in the mouth. But ethical hacking is fringe hand in hand for security. To fight enemy, know the enemy.
