Security experts mock website of Trump's cyber czar

A good way to tell whether a "cybersecurity expert" truly knows something about cybersecurity is to take a look at their website, assuming they have one.

Does the site look like something coded for a middle school project? If so, you might want to be skeptical.

If, for example, the newly appointed informal cybersecurity advisor to President-elect Donald Trump has a company website that looks like it was built after a handful of coding classes, it makes sense to doubt his expertise.

Folks on the internet immediately denounced the cybersecurity chops of former New York City Mayor Rudy Giuliani, who was announced as an informal cyber advisor to Trump on Thursday.

Giuliani runs a management firm called Giuliani Partners that houses a company branch allegedly dealing with security services. The company's website was, laughably, down at time of writing.

Users on Twitter were quick to point out the site's multiple flaws.

Probably not a good sign.

Another not great sign: The website, when it was up, didn't seem to detail any of the firm's cybersecurity work.

It offered generic descriptions of what they would theoretically do for clients, but didn't mention who its cyber "experts" are nor did it list any of its former or current clients. From that lack of information, the next question is obvious: Does Giuliani know anything about cybersecurity?

Maybe not. But he does know about mingling government and business, something which others have pointed out.

Alright then. Making America Safe Again starts here...
