DCSA and whatnot cannot constantly watch everyone all the time. They also cannot prevent every single possible edge case and scenario. If they tried, nobody would get anything done. You could be told classified information, go home that day, and tell your wife the same thing. There is literally nothing they can do to prevent that except make sure people know there are consequences to doing so. There are many such examples. Classified CDs is a good one. There are many rules related to classified CDs, but at some level you have to trust your people are following these rules. This is why getting a clearance is more difficult than the average job interview, and why people from the Intel communities take leaks so personally. It has to be part of the culture.

>It has to be part of the culture. Funny that no one in a financial institute has access to private mail (Switzerland), USB is deactivated, to Surf the Web you need another laptop, no one has access to backups (Mainframe etc) without the knowledge of the CEO but maybe the data is more worth? But yes at the end of the day you have to trust your peoples....but private email from your working-machine....that's borderline dangerous.

  Nearly all classified networks are airgapped. Many are isolated to a single building or even room. I seriously doubt he had his Gmail up on his classified workstation.
