Over the past few weeks, Wesley at the excellent www.mcgrewsecurity.com has blogged about the infamous (I use that word very very loosely) security consultant Yousif Yalda. I’ll save you the pain of re-hashing what’s already been covered, but you should really check out the hilarious posts on Wesley’s blog. If your having a dull day this’ll pep you right up
For bonus points, you also get to listen to Yousif’s friend/lackey phoning Wesley at 2am to get all repetitive up on his ass. It’s funny, on a whole new level. If you listen closely you even get to hear him cussing me out as a MF’ing Canadian. Close, but not quite accurate. In that I’ve never even BEEN to Canada. The slideshow Wesley has kindly added to stop us all from falling asleep during the inane ramblings adds well to the overall effect as the crazy man-spud takes repetition to whole new level. I wonder if the audio would make a good ringtone ???

He is quite the idiot, wouldn’t you say?
I’d tend to agree, with of course the caviat that I’ve never actually met him (or am likely to thank god, how boring would that conversation be…) My views are soley based on chat logs from Wesley, and the ever so nice phone message from his friendly friend Mark or Mike or Mick. I can’t recall off-hand, definetely started with an M though and had a lot of swearing.
Anyway, the whole Yousif thing is a little stale now. He’s just another 31337 troll type like n3td3v (see full disclusore for more details) and only warrants a few minutes attention before we start having to do some real work again
