Wonderful compilation here; I will view it in the morning, and in the meantime have forwarded to my colleagues for their examination. Will get back to you soon.

Barrett,

This is getting juicy regarding jussi. I've been obsessed with this all night . . .

I came across this article: http://www.tietoyhteiskuntaohjelma.fi/parhaatkaytannot/tietoliikenne_ja_digitv/fi_FI/1146729681443/

At the top of the page is a familiar email: jussij@gmail.com and it appears the article was published in 2006.

At the bottom of the page is a PDF link. I have attached the PDF. At the bottom of the PDF document, are references to Jussi and his co-author and what they do at Nokia. What'ya know. Google Translate doesn't do well with Finnish to English, but there enough out there to make the case that jussij@gmail.com aka jussi.jaakonahonokia.com aka jussi@mataaratanga.com aka jussi.jaakonaho@sentor.se belong to the same guy.

Meaning the Chief Security Analyst (or Chief Advisor, Enterprise Risk & Security) at NOKIA (and the "Industry Keynote Speaker" at the 2009 Forrester's Security Forum in London) . . . wait for it . . .  got socially engineered by a 16-year-old-girl.

www.tietoyhteiskuntaohjelma.fi has an English version you can switch too, but then strangely no reference to our boy Jussi will come up in the site search.

And it gets funny (not really) when you realize that he is sitting on security advisory boards and speaking at conferences:

This quote should be attributed to Jussi: “companies won’t die because of their false actions. they die because of the continuing of the same actions for too long (which once were right).”


And Jussi offers a lot of expertise . . . including the discovery of a Windows DDoS vulnerability back in 2003:

Barrett,


Nothing you couldn't have found out already, but in reading up on everything I was curious who this Jussi dude is from rootkit.com - could this be the same jussi?:

I mean how many jussi jaakonaho's can there be?
