Israelie?
Israeli.

Ya know, I'm not sure where I picked that spelling up.
Still, this will have a decidedly interesting impact on the notion of information security.

Well, it looks like a little girl nickname for Israel.
I am so not surprised by this, though.

(That may have been rather mean. I'm sorry, Trevor.
If you want, I could explain about some, ah, women stuff going on right now and why I'm grumpy...)
Posted by TMedina (Member # 6649) on :
Nah.
I'm in an amazingly foul mood myself, so it's all good.

What, you don't want to hear about my reproductive system?
(I'd guess the answer to that is, "No, thanks, unless you're having another baby."
At least, that's the only answer that doesn't get you slapped.)

Like that's a subject I want to discuss at the best of times.
I'm still a guy.

That was in ALL the papers here. It's a huge deal!
I think it's kind of funny, actually.

From the link:
quote: Some of the world's top computer security companies, including Check Point Software Technologies Ltd., are Israeli.
The US government refuses to use CheckPoint firewalls because the company refuses to release the code.
EDIT: I should really say, they refuse to use Checkpoint firewalls because Checkpoint, an Israeli company, will not cooperate in a fashion that garners our government's trust.
So we use (ugh) Sidewinder firewalls instead.

I've just re-read it... the author mentioned is married to one of the most terrifying woman-celebs in Israel... She'll get back at those Trojan muels.
