Would you trust a computer security company who didn't hash the passwords of their users on their web site, and instead stored the plain text passwords encrypted in their database, with the keys to decrypt them on their server, because they claim that "Your data are encrypted on our server, if you request the password to be sent to you by email the system knows how to decrypt the information and it will send you the…
His company came out with a "secure" voice encryption product, and then a previously unknown anonymous hacker reviewed the product and its competitors, and wrote a suspiciously positive review of it, claiming it was the only one he couldn't break.

A suspicious security researcher baited the anonymous hacker to post on his blog, and it turned out he was using an ip addressed registered to the security company whose product he'd written a favorable review about.
When confronted with proof, the founder of the security company denied astroturfing, denied knowing the hacker, and implausibly claimed the anonymous hacker must have been using his company's anonymous browsing service.
The same security company founder who spent three years in jail for phone phreaking, because he was convicting of hacking and defrauding profit. The same security company who stores their user's passwords in unhashed unsalted plain text encrypted with a key on their server. The same security company who resets their user's passwords with their email address. The same security company whose founder claims that "many customer do not wish their password to be reset each time they have a problem" justifies not hashing passwords, and resetting passwords to "convenient" email addresses. The same security company whose founder refuses to change his "unconventional" security policies after being confronted with these facts, and instead makes ridiculous excuses for his incompetence, and continues to betray the trust of his customers even after he's been confronted with it.
Can you figure out who it is now?
