Border Research Group and Border HackerSpace
...are cybersecurity research, reporting, and public accountability projects started in 2016 by Jonathan Islan and Co. Our website serves as a portal for cybersecurity news and hacking/penetration-testing resources for serious practitioners.
We share our ongoing learning experiences with Debian-based Linux server and desktop configuration and development, penetration testing, system-hardening, and all things Linux.
Jonathan earned AAS degrees in Electronics and Computer Programming from the Community College of the Air Force and Lane Community College, and received his Bachelor of Science degree from the University of Oregon.
He is a dedicated, passionate activist, technician, and educator, with interests ranging from computer science to physics, planetary astronomy, exobiology, religion, history, anthropology, literature, philosophy, music, architecture, and art. The opinions expressed here or therein are directly those of the vast majority of broad-minded, intelligent people. heh...
We treasure and encourage humor, skilled insights, input, originality, truthfulness, outside-the-box approaches, artistic and (ethical) scientific endeavor, functional solutions to the problem of faster-than-light communication and travel, optimism, and a worldwide non-violent uprising and revolution of the People, for the healing and preservation of our common stewardship and its treasured object, this great, magickal marble upon the Deep - the Mother Earth.
We discourage illegal hacking in principle, particularly by incompetent, self-serving criminals, as well as corporate and government fraud and oppression, and unyielding avoidance of personal responsibility for the consequences of international mass-scale profit-mongering and global environmental destruction by those guilty-as-charged.
We believe that the essence of the United States' "Declaration of Independence", with its implications, imprecations, recommendations, and unambiguous conclusions must be boldly carried forth once again by the descendants of those founding fathers who constructed it, unwittingly, for the edification and transformation of all failed Democracies
and not merely the secession of one oligarchy (the colonial states) from another (the Kingdom of Great Britain).
