NATO has released a short video, looking at the hacker phenomenon. It takes pains to interview hackers who believe in responsible disclosure of bugs to vendors. The risk associated with a security exploit being sold to the highest bidder is that the average user doesnt necessarily get protected.

Some countries have created Cyber Security Challenges in an attempt to attract bright new talent to the internet security industry.”]
