What? fudsec was created to showcase bad examples of Information Security marketing. Anytime the marketing message from an Information Security vendor or provider makes you feel Fear, Uncertainty, Doubt (FUD!)...or just plain dirty, let us know and we'll feature it here.
Why fudsec? Wow, you haven't been in the industry long. FUD = Fear, Uncertainty and Doubt. Oh and it seems to happen a lot with the "security" industry.
Why now? Because it's time to give recognition where due...plus we think its fun!
How can I help? See our carefully crafted "call to action" immediately below this sentence.

FAQ
Do you offer any free bonuses? YES! You can follow us for free on twitter to get updates: http://twitter.com/fudsec
There is so much FUD, what will be featured? We can't possibly feature all the FUD, therefore we will give preference to mainstream security vendors (that should know better).
I'm a security vendor, can I advertise on your site? Indirectly yes. If you ads meet our strict publishing criteria (see above), they may be featured on this website. We reserve the right to add a commentary to facilitate the positioning of your product/service. The primary audience of this website are information security professionals, therefore by appearing on fudsec.com you can rest assured you are reaching decision makers.
I'm a marketeer and I resent you featuring my ad on fudsec.com - I spent ages coming up with that! Although we don't offer official marketeer counseling services, we can suggest an approach that has worked for many in the past - change your company name and branding - it turns out people have really short term memories!
Do you hate marketeers? Not at all. We hate bad marketing. If a marketeer constantly pushes out FUD and/or hyperbolic marketing messages then its possible *they* could get featured on a possible future project: fudsecmarketeers.com.
How long will you run this site for? Til the FUD problem is solved.
How long is that? You need to ask? ;-)
Why do you use cheesy highlighting for your "call to action"? Why not? We hear it works really well for ebook sellers!
