Gregory D. Evans / LIGATT Security
A supposed "hi-tech hustler", "WORLD'S NO 1 HACKER" and convicted felon (Bureau of Prisons #13432-112), Gregory Dante Evans has invented himself as some form of hacker with the ability to break into anything and spin that supposed knowledge into advising companies on security. In reality, Evans and his company have little real knowledge beyond pedestrian hacking techniques found in plagiarized books and beginner hacking texts. His company, LIGATT Security International, offers a "suite" of products that are bloated version of common tools such as ping and nmap. Evans, who plagiarizes content rather than write it himself, is over US$10 million in debt due to his own history of crime and his inability to run a company. Every press release, every video cast, every public communication is full of discrepancies, half-truths and outright lies.
