Most of you guys are just guessing here, my company does pen. testing for the DoD and NASA and they are full of holes (big enough to drive a Humvee through). Back in 2001, they had serious BIND issues, SMTP proxy alias issues, blank passwords on POP3, etc etc....now, these are all fixed but think about all of the vuln's that have been created since then. They don't have the internal expertise to secure themselves, most of the internal staff are high school drop-outs who didn't want to be in the infantry. Why do you think they use 3rd party vendors for most of their Info-SEC work. If terrorists even get a slight clue, we are in for a world of pain.....
