Security circles were recently set abuzz by news concerning Russia-based security company Kasperksy Lab and its alleged involvement in the theft by Russian operatives of sensitive files of the National Security Agency (NSA), an intelligence agency of the U.S. Department of Defense. But the words tip and iceberg spring to mind here.
Reports from various news agencies including the Wall Street Journal and the Washington Post account how the leak was caused by an NSA contractor who took classified documents and then stored them on his home computer, which ran Kaspersky security software. More than twenty U.S. agencies have stopped using Kaspersky software since.
