I don't see anything in this article that qualifies Mr. McCarty as a "security pro". Note to Mr. Lemos, if his is just some kid that got denied school admission and hacked them....please don't call him a "security pro". You're doing a disservice to the profession (even worse then the existance of the CISSP cert).

My .02,
