Default NSA Paid Security Firm $10M For Backdoor Access

It is astounding that nothing is still being done about the NSA spying and, adding insult to injury, these multi-million dollar bribes are paid with tax dollars. Undisclosed until now was that RSA received $10 million in a deal that set the NSA formula as the preferred, or default, method for number generation in the BSafe software, according to two sources familiar with the contract. Although that sum might seem paltry, it represented more than a third of the revenue that the relevant division at RSA had taken in during the entire previous year, securities filings show.
