A couple of days back I had told you how a Polish security expert and hacker Adam Gowdiak had created ripples by reporting vulnerability in Nokia S 40 phones and had in turn asked for $29,500 for releasing the complete report. This entire incident had raise eyebrows in the community.

Nokia admitted to have received the security threat notice from Adam Gowdiak and now the company has admitted that its S series operating system is vulnerable to hackers and malicious programs could be installed. I was wondering whether Nokia had paid for his efforts or not since the company avoided commenting on this issue. Even Adam Gowdiak could not be reached on this issue but to me it seems that his efforts have finally paid off. Best of luck Adam for your new venture!!
