I’ve been trying to apply for positions like this for years. I have a Masters in Information assurance, several industry security certifications, and 15+ years in actual private-industry IT, and they don’t even return my calls.

“Mularski befriended the criminal mastermind behind the site and persuaded him to let Mularski move the operation onto new computer servers. The servers happened to belong to the FBI, which led to more than 60 arrests worldwide.”
Now this is funny and a terrific successful capture!
