US Military Will Soon Begin Testing NSA's New, Post-Snowden Security Measures (dailydot.com)

Patrick O'Neill writes: The U.S. military will closely review the NSA's security measures as concerns mount that foreign adversaries and independent hackers are targeting the American government in cyberspace. "We will determine whether National Security Agency processes and technical controls are effective to limit privileged access to National Security Agency systems and data and to monitor privileged user actions for unauthorized or inappropriate activity," Carol Gorman, the Pentagon's assistant inspector general, wrote in the letter.

    Whoosh.

    You missed his point entirely.

    a) His point is Snowden wouldn't compromise his trust in the first place, because he's not committing and concealing tons of crimes.

    b) His point is that even if Snowden did compromise him, and leaked his activities... well ... it would be an uninteresting list that practically nobody would care about it.

    As he said, he is *SNOWDEN* proof. He is not *hacker proof*.
