CIA needs to work with the tech community to patch the vulnerabilities, and the US business community for awareness of the vulnerabilities. The cat is out of the bag and CIA's mission is very much consistent with a direct defense effort to ensure foreign powers and organized criminal entities cannot use the CIA's compromised assets against US citizens.
- bluejekyll 10y agoActually, it's the CIAs job is to actively collect information on foreign governments and nationals. This information is then supposed to be given to other organizations in the government to be used to guide decisions on foreign policy and potentially active missions to disrupt foreign activity. I would argue that the group you are talking about is really the NSA. They should be doing everything in their power to make the US more secure, not easier to spy on.
- rrggrr 10y agoI agree with you. NSA or NIST should be tasked. On the other hand, its their mess and they should clean it up.
