Of course!

Roblox being such a popular site, they need to have people that can make sure Roblox is safe, and can remain a fun website to go on! :)

I might be able to get a list of some methodologies that are used for penetration testing.

I don't imagine Penetration Testers are on the team. It seems somewhat pointless having to pay for somebody to test out the system every update when the updates that need testing are so few and far between.
Coder can you verify that they do?

Of course! Roblox utilizes a security team, devoted to finding exploits both client-related, and web-related.

Some tools that they use are: Ollydbg, IDA Pro, and Cheat Engine.

This may sound silly, but sometimes the web-engineers use Chrome to edit some web-code to see if they can infiltrate, and cause some damage. If they do, it is quickly reversed and is brought up upon the web-team.

Seriously though Coder, I'd love to see where you got this info.

I didn't recall them pointing out a security team last summer on the tour.

Well first off, it's a pretty basic understanding once you get into computer science. Every company needs penetration testers, or else damage will happen to the company.

Also, take a look here: http://hire.jobvite.com/CompanyJobs/Careers.aspx?c=qXr9Vfwc&v=1&page=Job%20Description&j=oJmnYfwa

A Penetration Tester is usually a person that tries to hack their own systems to find exploits in the system.

Coder's info seems legit.

I wasn't sure whether or not they hired outside for them.

Or "rented" them. (lol)

Typically roblox hires people that can be useful assets to their company. Due to over-state employment, roblox wouldn't hire someone in Florida, and use skype to allow that person to come to a meeting.
