Howard Schmidt Resigns As Cybersecurity Advisor

Posted by timothy on from the thanks-for-all-the-snacks dept.

scubacuda writes "CNN and others report that former Microsoft chief of security Howard Schmidt has resigned as White House cybersecurity adviser. 'With the historic creation of the Department of Homeland Security, the transfer of many of the responsibilities from the Critical Infrastructure Protection Board and the release of the strategy, I have decided to retire after approximately 31 years of public service and return to the private sector,' Schmidt said in his April 21 e-mail."

    not to troll, but..

    I imagine he will spend his time cleaning his guns, now that he's retired.
