Land Rush Group founder Ejovi Nuwere interviewed on PBS TV’s Biz Kid

November 3, 2009

I can’t say enough about my boy Ejovi Nuwere, formally the CEO of startup SecurityLab Technologies. Ejovi Nuwere grew up impoverished in the Bed-Sty section of Brooklyn where he saw a close friend gunned down as a teenager and his mother succumb to drugs. Despite those obstacles, Ejovi went on to become a computer security professional at age 15 and went own to work for @stake (later acquired by Symantec), and ended up on the Businesweeks top 25 under 25 in 2005. Check out his PBS TV ‘Biz Kid’ video feature below:

It is amazing that he learnt hacking so young..

I should take time to learn those skills and seeing what they can be used for.

Learning the skill of hacking can be used for a lot of things, so I would encourage you to learn as much as you can. Let's say you're really into Google for example, you can start learning a skill the IT security industry calls "Google Hacking."

Essentially you're manipulating Google through your search queries to retrieve sensitive data store on the web in unsecure database, excel spreadsheets, database, etc. Typically large enterprises conduct Google Hacking on themselves to make sure a hacker or a competitor for example, can't retrieve any sensitive information about them.

Go to google.com and search "johnihackstuff" ... the site is Johnny Long's site, who wrote the book Google Hacking Volume 1 and 2.. This should get you going.. Happy hacking..

Cheers
