Unless I missed something, these seemed like legitimate responses.  They may
not have all been delivered with tact, but I mean, you are on FD, what did
you expect?

I think some valid points are brought up about your credentials and your
process.

You'd be right only if you weren't wrong. That being said, we're
not going to talk to the trolls any more. While it might be amusing
it's a waste of our time, and our readers time.

We will continue to write reviews and will continue to be as honest
and truthful as possible during our reviews. Likewise, if any of
our legitimate readers have any questions or comments about our
blog, we'd very much appreciate them. We especially want people to
comment if they have worked with a vendor that we have assessed, we
want to know your experience. Other than that, thanks for your time
and thanks for reading!

1.) What are your qualifications for reviewing these
companies?

We are a team of security professionals that have been
performing a
wide array of penetration tests, vulnerability assessments, web
application security services etc. One of our team members has
founded two different security companies both of which have been
very successful and have offered high quality services. Yes we
have
all sorts of pretty little certifications, but those don't
really
matter.

So this is basically a tacit admission that every one of your
"team"
has something to gain by smearing the competition.  At this point,
I'm
inclined to believe that the firms you've scored favorably are
your
employers.  You're not only incompetent, it seems that you're
unethical as well.  Not that I'm surprised.
