Now, however, the associated software products to help just about anyone with a little knowledge break into those networks is starting to show up. Not surprisingly, the debate then begins to rage on: is it better to have these things released so people know just how insecure their networks are, or should people keep this stuff secret until the gaping holes (and are they ever gaping) are fixed?
