welcome to a different kind of blog from microsoft
Hello world.
Welcome to a new blog from Microsoft. The focus of this blog is likely to be a little different from most other blogs you'll see on blogs.msdn.com. Microsoft employs some of the best hackers in the world and actively recruits them and develops them. They work on all kinds of projects, whether it be in development, research, testing, management and of course security. Of course, there is controversy even in the word "hacker" but I don't think that should stop us from using it in the manner I think is the most appropriate. At his or her core, a true hacker is someone who is curious and wants to learn how systems work. This can and of course at Microsoft is done in an ethical, legal manner. We employ "white hat hackers" who spend their time pentesting and code reviewing applications and software looking for weaknesses and vulnerabilities so that others don't once we've released that code into the wild. We employ many many smart testers who know more about some of our software then perhaps the architects who designed it. We also employ some of the top researchers in their industry, dedicated people working on the bleeding edge of whats going to be common place in the next 5 or 10 years of computing. So yes, Microsoft does have hackers, and its time to introduce you to some of them and show you what it is, exactly that they do.
Generally most of the content you'll read and people you'll meet on this blog will be somehow related to security but not all by any stretch.

8月28日消息,为了增加其软件的安全性,微软雇佣黑客为其服务已不是什么秘密,但微软很少公开谈论这个事实。不过,随着一个名叫hackers @ microsoft的博客的开通,微软的态度发生了改变。Anonymous

peu etre un grand pas pour le net...mais à l'heure ou microsoft à pris le monopole des systemes d'exploitations et de certains autres logiciels, je ne peux croire qu'une société qui fait de la sorte peux nous laisser envisager qu elle sera neutre vis a vis de nos commentaires sur ce blogAnonymous

Isnt hacking a very misleading title (Even the usage, but it's usage has changed when originally defined), especially if the hackers are in-house or contractors. Either way, MS would employ TESTERS and most security implications with MS products wouldn't be discussed in much detail for possible crippling of product quality. Anyway, I like to see how this will turn out.Anonymous

I know this is a bit of a repetitive comment at this point but, where are the new posts? You managed to create a buzz with the launch of this site but, you're doing yourself a disservice by allowing this site to languish.
