Snowden - A short-term contractor who was able to view and steal classified docs while working for a private sector company serving the NSA. If the gov't or anyone else at Booz Allen Hamilton was competent, these files would have been encrypted so he could work with them as a SharePoint/file admin without seeing them.
Manning - same as above except he wasn't a contractor
FAA system outage - some guy working as a contractor deleted some files during an upgrade process
No Fly - probably some guy put a file on an FTP server instead of SFTP
Other Examples - are many I'm sure
This is all IT 101 and all you need to solve this when working at such an important level is a PEER REVIEW PROCESS...makes me sick to see all the millions we spend to hire out crap like this...the blind leading the blind. We are governed by many incompetent people that hire out other incompetent people...but why is it that if I hire some small business these kinds of mess ups don't happen a much?
