B.8. Hacker and “Underground” Organizations
Not every hacker is a bad person. Not every “underground” organization is looking to take over the cyber world. However, I have found that the information on many of these sites is posted quicker than on so-called legitimate sites, and many times they describe the exploit better. Security professionals can learn a lot by reading the information these groups provide. I am not passing judgment on what these groups do with the information or how they obtain it.The sites here are a sample of those I read on a regular basis.
