Core Security Sends in the Schwag

I meant to post this a little more than a week ago, but all the GhostExodus stuff sort of bumped this up until now.  If you’re new to the site because of all the recent action, here are the posts that lead up to this one:

• Core Security: You Just Might Not Be Cool Enough For Their Party
• Core Security Apologizes, “Not Cool Enough For Core 2009″ gathering proposed
• Core Security: Fun with my web logs

Core Security are still visiting the site on a daily basis, which is pretty cool.  It looks like they occasionally verify that I’m still ranked higher on google than them for searches for their own party, but they seemed interested in the GhostExodus stuff too.

As a token of appreciation for pointing out their rude and unnecessarily elitist invitation processes, Kimberly Legelis, Core Security’s VP of marketing, sent me a Core Security t-shirt and a Core Security USB sparkly lamp thing:

It was accompanied by a nice handwritten note from Kimberly.  I’m looking forward to dropping by their booth at Black Hat to meet her and the others in-person.

This probably won’t keep me from poking fun at Core Security every once in a while here (especially now that I have them reading this site on a regular basis), but I will feel slightly guilty about it now.  I’ll get over it :).
