San Francisco, CA - August 14, 2008 - Revision3, the TV network for the Internet generation, today announced that it is bringing Hak5, a home-grown hit series fusing underground culture and mainstream IT, to its weekly lineup of pop culture shows. Covering everything from network security, open source software and forensics, to Do It Yourself projects and the homebrew scene, new episodes of Hak5 will launch September 8th on Revision3 at www.revision3.com/hak5.

"Back when we launched Tekzilla, a few fans accused us of ripping off Hak5's brick-encrusted set. The correlation was spurious, but rather than alienate the industry's top hackers, we decided it would be better to team up with Hak5 instead," said Jim Louderback, CEO of Revision3. "Seriously, it's great to have such a hardcore hacking show round out our coverage for tech fanatics everywhere. And given the street cred of the Hak5 team, I'd rather have them with us than against us."

Hak5, known as a hybrid of technology and geek humor, has been put together by a band of IT ninjas, security professionals and gaming enthusiasts since 2005. Within its first few months on-air the show had become a hit among tech enthusiasts as well as mainstream media, and currently attracts fans from around the world.

"With this partnership we intend to focus solely on delivering the kind of unique and high quality content our loyal viewers have come to expect", said Darren Kitchen, Producer, Hak5. "We're excited to become a part of Revision3's great lineup of shows - and to extend our devoted audience in the near future."

The first episode of Hak5 will launch on Revision3 on September 8, 2008. Episodes will be hosted by Darren Kitchen, Matt Lestock and Shannon Morse and will appear regularly every Wednesday at 12 p.m. EST.
