Apple snaps up former Microsoft security expert

Kristen Paget was part of an elite team of security experts hired by Microsoft to rid Windows Vista of glaring exploits. Now, as reported by Wired, she’s been brought on by Apple to lend her expertise to securing the company’s operating systems.

Paget made waves in the hacker scene in 2010 when she debuted a homemade cellular base station capable of intercepting phone calls at the Defcon security conference.
