        If it is (and even if it's not), way less likely this is Shadow Brokers source, given that after that dude FBI blamed Hal Martin.

        How was a Vietnamese national involved at a high level at TAO?

        I've never heard of it at NSA, but I think technically you can hold a clearance as a dual national if you agree you'd renounce it if asked.

        Again, may be an aspect of contractor being involved.

        Thanks, Marcy, for your catch. He was a U.S. citizen, my understanding is born in Vietnam. Also he was not a contractor. Was a TAO employee.

        Ah, makes far more sense. Didn't want to go nuts on the foreign citizen thing.

        Why does the USG try so hard to convince people not to use Kaspersky AV?
