NSA should be broken into SIGINT & IAD just so fewer people will end up with access to stuff. This isn’t working.http://foreignpolicy.com/2016/10/20/prosecutors-detail-what-may-be-nsas-worst-ever-security-breach/ …

that's not the issue. Most actually sensitive info is in compartments... which Harold was read into as part of OSD/TAO.

yeah Harold Martin. He had legit access at some point or another to all these docs. Bounced around highest levels of DOD cyber for yrs

So I figured you’d say this, but it takes work to track all these people (why Martin wasn’t caught earlier)...

… and every dollar NSA spends tracking Booz sysadmins is a dollar not spent watching people read into TAO.

he was not a sysadmin though, he was on staff at OSD to assist in cyber policy development for how all this stuff gets used afaik.

Yes, but we already have existence proof that NSA org is too big for them to manage data security. Repeated failures.

yeah that's totally true lol. But the scope of access to the docs he stole is not "all of IAD", it's the 20-200 other people read in.

he just happened to be in a lot of compartments, apparently, and NSA is still bad at managing even local-scale data security.
