I wouldn't hire a security company run by the former head of the NSA. Is there any question in anyone's mind that if he was approached by the government to put a backdoor in your company's product or infrastructure, he wouldn't hesitate for a second to say yes?
- dllthomas 12y agoThe government never paid him a million dollars.
- uptown 12y agoHow would you know? The US intelligence budget clocks in around $52 billion. You don't think a few million could be allocated if it was the most-expedient way of making something happen?
- dllthomas 12y agoIf you mean that the government could offer him a million now to expose a client's network, sure, but they could offer that to anyone.
- Already__Taken 12y agoCan't the government use everything they know he has done with them to ban him entirely from the sector? Some kind of conflict or interest or just hang him with something and put out a black mark.
- dllthomas 12y agoYou mean, "You're coming too close to trading classified information, if you're not actually doing so already. Stop it."? You mean they could threaten this to get cooperation, or that they should do this? Anyway. Yes, I think.
