Hacking - Hall of Fame

the internet was not meant to be a secure channel of communication. with a breif understanding of the history behind this technology, it does not take an tech expert to realize this. there is no machanism embeded in the nature of packet switching to ensure the integrity of content. the loopholes of internet was probably more glaring in the early days when computers just came to existence.

the internet evolve so fast that the security aspect is too often left behind. this is especially observant in the e-commerce trend where businesses quickly gain access to the market yet easily exposed to potential attacks.
