Goli is a computer security consultant; she enjoys the challenge of finding and fix- ing security vulnerabilities. Independently wealthy, she does not need to work, so she has ample spare time in which to test the security of systems. In her spare time, Goli does three things: First, she aggressively attacks commercial products for vulnerabilities. She is quite proud of the tools and approach she has devel- oped, and she is quite successful at finding flaws. Second, she probes accessible sys- tems on the Internet, and when she finds vulnerable sites, she contacts the owners to offer her services repairing the problems. Finally, she is a strong believer in high- quality pastry, and she plants small programs to slow performance in the web sites of pastry shops that do not use enough butter in their pastries."
How would you respond if Goli came to you describing a vulnerability in your system and offering to help fix it--What would incline you to hire her? What would disincline you from doing so?
