Under its $2.9 million, five-year contract with the county, Konnech was supposed to securely maintain the data and that only United States citizens and permanent residents have access to it. District Attorney investigators found that in contradiction to the contract, information was stored on servers in the People’s Republic of China. Maybe there are additional facts not claimed in the press release, but at face value the two above statements are not mutually exclusive. If the PRC wanted access and the company was willing, it is hardly necessary for the data to reside in any geographic location.
