Shooting the Messenger

Researcher Assaulted By A Vendor After Disclosing A Vulnerability:

Following a serious vulnerability disclosure affecting casinos globally, an executive of casino technology vendor Atrient has assaulted the security researcher who disclosed the vulnerability at the ICE conference in London. This is the story of a vulnerability disclosure gone bad, one involving the FBI, a vendor with a global customer base of casinos and a severe security vulnerability which has gone unresolved for four months without being properly addressed.

RT it's a dry heat @conlific Replying to @WeldPond:

Well, that doesn't play into casino/mob stereotypes at all...
