Want your business on TV? (probably not spam!)

[Legion303]

Some friends of mine have a TV show airing next month on Court TV (now "Tru TV"). The show, Tiger Team, is a bit like To Catch a Thief in the sense that both shows feature a small team of experts who publicly show people how they can be compromised--but Tiger Team is different in that the team also compromises alarm systems, physical locks (the goal being to get in and out relatively undetectably, not to just smash a window) and defeats computer security in order to grab sensitive data.

Having watched a rough draft of the pilot episode, I can tell you that what's shown is not enough for the casual viewer to mimic--these guys aren't training people how to bypass anything, and there's plenty of editing to keep it that way. All three of the team members do high-level penetration and security work for a living and are professionals in every sense of the word.

That said, they would like to line up some companies that don't mind being on TV and are willing to undergo a few days of filming. Requirements below.

Ladies and Gents,

We need your help to find juicy targets that would be fun to watch us

compromise for the show. This list of potential targets is critical

for the success of the show as the network is getting ready to sign

off on more episodes. Locations and businesses can be anywhere and

anything so long as they have sensitive data / merchandise for use to

"acquire". The production company is also very responsive to the

locations specific security needs and are happy to edit / censor

anything that the business wants to protect.

Good locations:

Banks

Data centers

Hospitals

Insurance companies

Weapon / Research Businesses

Police Departments

Jails / Prisons / etc.

Holding companies

HR management companies

Government Buildings

The selected locations will get the work at a free/reduce rate

(depending upon the job), which will help them identify issues that

need to be mitigated that threaten their operations. Our resumes, job

history, and references are available and will be provided to any

business that is serious about engaging us.

If you work somewhere cool but you don't have the power to make the

decision, that's OK, give us a name of someone who can and let us talk

with them to see if they would like to be part of the project. We

have a very limited amount of time to put together this list so please

help us gather the names of potential locations today. I will also

kick out an appropriate finders fee to any job that you send us that

signs and makes it on the air!

Note:

For those of you who don't have a clue what I am talking about, 2 of

my coworkers (Liz Borden & Indi) and myself have been working with

Size 12 productions and a few other key people for a year and a half

creating a TV show about what we do for a living. (Size 12 is the

production company that created American Choppers, American Casino,

the Dennis Rodman show, Geek to Freak, America's Toughest Bars, etc.)

Our show is currently being produced under the name of "Tiger Team"

and will be shown during primetime "red" on Tru-TV (court TV) --

If you would like more information please google: Tiger Team Courttv

Thanks for your help!

CourtTV has changed the air date. It's now 12/25/2007 in the evening (check local listings; 9pm in Colorado). They will be showing the first two episodes back-to-back.

I plan on attending the pre-release party tonight. Anyone who's going to be in Denver around 10pm is welcome to come, but they close the doors when 700 people are in the building. 1082 Broadway, downstairs. I believe it's still a 21+ club, but it's been a long time since I've been there and they changed management.
