Hacking the Pentagon is a commonly seen feat in action ******, but among actual, real-life ******s who don't want to end in jail, it's k**wn as something you just don't do.*
That changes today, with a new initiative from the*U.S. Defense Department that will ask "vetted" security experts to test the cybersecurity of the Pentagon, Reuters reported (http://www.reuters.com/article/us-usa-cyber-pentagon-idUSKCN0W40H8?feedType=RSS&feedName=tech**logyNews) Wednesday.
