Sasser author finds gainful employment
[PC Pro] 13:37

The 18 year old accused of unleashing the Sasser worm on the world has been hired by a security firm.
In a fine example of poacher turning gamekeeper, Sven Jaschan, who caused chaos in the world's computer systems earlier this year has been hired by northern German outfit Securepoint with a view to train him up to be a security software coder. The company said, in a masterpiece of teutonic understatement, that young Sven 'has a certain know-how in this field.'

Others in the security business are less than impressed fearing that many young coders will now consider it a plus to have the authorship of a damaging virus on their CV.[/quote]
