Cyber Sopranos whether the type who pwn former CIA director's emails or the ones flying uav near a jet over jfk can not care less about law enforcement -- let alone their certification to a product line and bull$hit cash flow behind it . offenders are always some step ahead . organized crime or terror level serious guys facing naked java or flawed ibm middleware running jpmorgan scale finance run their implant.py and flood.lua telling feds to shove the anti terror tools up their officially corrupt holes .

So the DHS has certified FireEye's products as "Qualified
Anti-Terrorism Technology", which in short means that if you get
breached and the attack is considered an act of terrorism, it's not
your fault. This is interesting for a couple of reasons, perhaps
mainly because FE's products are not exactly known to be bullet proof
(see for example https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3vh2s9Pui0E), but
also for the pure ridiculousness of the whole affair.

The way I see it, this development is likely to lead to a couple of
things:

1. Everyone who gets breached and that has a FireEye box will cry "ACT
OF TERRORISM", which of course is exactly what the world needs.

2. FireEye will make a *lot* of money.

3. Terrorists won't care.

Thoughts?
