Reminds me of a local cyber security firm, which declares war on a group of hackers. The CEO went on television to "double dog dare" the hackers to hack their servers and claim their firewalls are impenetrable.

Well you can guess the results, within 48 hours, their servers went down one after another. And when shit about to hit the fan, they literally turned off all of their servers for days. They hired a 3rd party IT firm to patch their security, then the CEO declared victory in a local newspaper.

Similar thing happened to the idiot CEO of Lifelock that used to advertise his actual social security number everywhere.

I used to work at Equifax. LifeLock was the subject of many corporate trainings.

A smarter person would have used a fake SSN then claimed success when it never worked
