This is like paying for a pentest of a treehouse, and claiming that this implies the updated treehouse with a working padlock instead of a novelty lock is in the same league as a bank or a data center.

It makes mongodb from the report a decade ago look good.

I'm not saying it is proof it is done. But most likely they are working on it

  • There's no prize for participation, and they very clearly didn't do even the most rudimentary testing before paying for an in-depth third party analysis. I'd say that this reflects a profoundly childish approach to software, but that is unfair to children: I remember how much testing I did of my crappy game before I submitted it to STFormat when I was 12.

  • They clearly aren’t the right team to be working on it. It’s best if someone else gives it a go.
