Is it illegal if I perform a vulnerability scan on a site without permission from the owner? How about a simple port scan? thanks.
Rule 0 of a pen test: *ALWAYS* have a *written* "Get Out Of Jail Free" card before doing anything, unless it is your own *personal* machine. This includes machines owned by your employer (ask Randal Schwartz about this one). Phrased differently - do you really want to gamble spending the next 3-5 with a big hairy dude named Bubba?
