Hacker advocacy group 2600 Australia has called on a Perth company to honor its promise to donate $US1 million to charity after its network security device remained uncracked after a 30-day public trial. Secure Systems, which has developed a hardware-based network security device called the Silicon Data Vault, said earlier this year it would donate $1 million to the United States-based Make-a-Wish Foundation if the device was cracked within a 30-day period ending at midnight on February 28, but only if the technology was onsold to a developer.
