In thread I created wishing CCP Stillman well Darius Johnson stated that CCP Team Security was disbanded 7 months ago.

Normally I would dismiss a comment like this but considering it was made Darius I am not so sure.

The last update I can find about CCP Team Security was at fanfest.

Can somebody from CCP confirm this is true and if so have they been replaced?

Hey CCP, I hear your vulnerable to cyber attack. I had big plans this year. So if you could confirm your security status, it would help me out a ton!

CCP now has bots doing the anti-botting work. Plus, they now pay RMT bounties to an overseas IT firm that specializes in detecting RMT.

The individuals are gone, but the security team remains.

Confirming that Darius Johnson is the official CCP spokesperson.





Since the cessation of their usefulness is imminent, may I appropriate your belongings?

I don't know, but someone/some group recently dumped $130k worth of Isk over the course of two days through an RMT exchange.

7 months? The last update I really saw about Team Security was a March 2013 dev blog that listed the members as:

CCP Peligro
GM Grimmi
CCP Doppel
CCP Stillman

But Stillman posted a dev blog about email verification in August that mentioned Team Security also.

CCP Team "Security" are like the various special forces of the world.

Sometimes their actions and exploits are well known and are praised in the media. Most times however, whilst their existence is known, their actions and deeds are not.



Some say they like to work in the dark and hidden places as that suits their purpose far easier than having the spotlight on them at all times.

Well, we got this topic which in itself is a second one about the invulnerabilities of the in game google 3 browser that went by unanswered (again) as in the three monkeys, 'hear no, see no, talk no'. Maybe there really isn't anybody 'home' anymore behind the securities desk.

I liked CCP better with CCP Sounwave at the controls, with CCP Seagull it feels as if we're back pre-incarna with transparency/communication and a CSM that's being reduced to an appendix waiting to be removed. Ugh
