WhiteHat: n. (WiT"hat)
In the realm of technology, the Internet and computer security,
there exists a body of individuals known as "hackers" or "blackhats".
Their intent is to penetrate computer systems for sport or malicious
intent.
"Whitehats", mirroring the imagery of the Wild West, are defined
as the cyberspace "good guys" dedicated to protecting the Cyber
Citizens from the mean streets of the Internet.
This is your room - developed with your input and needs in mind. If you have any questions,
suggestions or concerns, please use the media contact information.
WhiteHat is a media-friendly organization. All senior managers have been through rigorous
media training programs for all forms of media - print, television and radio. In the
security industry, it is imperative that all spokespeople and staff ensure the highest
levels of client confidentiality and privacy. WhiteHat will never give client names
or details of systems, unless promoted or instructed by the client. Our expert security
professionals can comment on industry trends, security threats (viruses, hackers)
security products, suppliers and best practices.
The WhiteHat mandate includes a strong focus on training and education. WhiteHat Management
is available seven days a week, 24 hours a day for interviews, information and comment
on events as they occur. We recognize that news doesn't stop. If a virus is spreading
overnight in North America, it is imperative that public awareness occurs BEFORE the
public turns on their computers.
