Sasser Worm Author Hired By Computer
Security Firm
09/19/2004 09:28 AM
Eighteen-year-old Sven Jaschan, the teen accused of creating the Sasser worm that infected millions of computers around the world, has been taken on by the Securepoint computer firm based in Lueneburg, northern Germany. There, he is being trained to create firewalls that prevent computer from being infected by just such worms and viruses.

Jaschan has been charged with computer sabotage, data manipulation and disruption of public systems for allegedly hatching the Sasser worm. Securepoint director Lutz Hausmann claimed Jashcan "deserves a chance" after admitting during a job interview that he only became really aware of the consequences of his actions after it was too late.

For all the hype about how Microsoft's bounty helped to catch the accused writer of the Sasser worm, the police are apparently now investigating whether or not the informant helped create the worm himself. This opens up a whole new set of questions about bounties. People who help each other create worms and viruses can turn around and backstab their partners for the bounty (and, of course, then be accused back by those they fingered).
