I made a parody song that's mainly about computer security and the kind of work I do over at Cigital. It's called White Hat Hacker Man and it's to the tune of Billy Joel's Piano Man. Lyrics are below. Lyrics It's five o'clock on a Saturday The developers are trying again The release manager waits in his cubicle for the build scripts and smoke tests to run He says how will we do this by Monday? The security tests haven't begun It's buggy and brittle and does just a little of what the sales guys downtown say it can NIST 800-53, FIPS 140-2, PCI.... Chorus: Break our new app white hat hacker man Break our new app tonight Cause we're all scared to death of the auditor But you'll make us feel alright. Now Bob down the hall is a friend of mine He uses tools right off the shelf He can do just a scan or maybe try something canned, but he's better than doing it yourself. He says "why do we need these consultants? I can do all this stuff just the same." He doesn't realize, when the hackers come, Who the management's going to blame. CISSP, MSCE, SANS GIAC Chorus: Break our new app white hat hacker man Break our new app tonight Cause we're all scared to death of the auditor But you'll make us feel alright. Now Dave's the development manager And security's a pain in his ass Cause he knows first and foremost Features get him his bonus So security always comes last Chorus: Break our new app white hat hacker man Break our new app tonight Cause we're all scared to death of the auditor But you'll make us feel alright. Well it's been a long day in security The dev manager gives a sad smile He knows this release Despite all their pleas Will miss their deadline by a mile And metasploit overflows buffers And the shell code runs on servers galore And they burned another sprint Instead of building security in So assessments will go on some more CCIE, OWASP, PMP Chorus: Break our new app white hat hacker man Break our new app tonight Cause we're all scared to death of the auditor But you'll make us feel alright. |
