HYDRA Can Stop Any Virus? Thats what they Claim.

[Mntsnow]

It sounds impossible, but Bodacion Technologies' Eric Uner claims to have discovered the holy grail of Internet security. Starting at a cool $17,000, businesses can buy Bodacion's "HYDRA" system to protect their Internet servers from every single virus, worm, or Trojan horse on earth. If you don't believe it, you could have tried to penetrate HYDRA to win Bodacion's $100,000 hacker prize. Tens of thousands of people signed up, but no one could, Uner says.
Uner began his career as a technology "firefighter," working on a small team at Motorola that tackled the tough stuff. After five years, he founded the software-consulting firm Virtual Media with another engineer, Eric Hauk, to build a SWAT team for business software projects. Virtual Media evolved into Bodacion in 2000 after Uner and his employees got tired of receiving emergency 3 a.m. pages when clients couldn't get into their e-mail. He decided to focus instead on building more reliable systems.

I remember this story from a few years ago. I forgot all about it. Made me wonder if some of these people who come up with secure systems come up with trojans/virus/woms as well.

its obvious a hacker can creat something against hackers..in the future however it wont be able to stop it i think..he just got rid of all the old viruses...and hell keep updating to new ones that come out..but if u look at that span of time when the antivirus is still pending release..then the virus couldve affected it

Like most new technology, some one will eventually find the kink's in his armour and exploit them. By saying it's unhackable all he did was make it a target. I'm sure before to long someone will successfully hack the heads off the hydra.

indeed they will..but he chose to do the competition at a time when the virii out had been solved out so it was really not something impressive..hes collected his money and publicity..now ppl will buy his software which he can keep updating to make it "unbeatable" and be rich... Smart guy actually.
