Re: Data on Obama's Helicopter Breached via P2P?

I'm more surprised to see an entire company built around protecting
organizations (apparently, mostly federal) against P2P data loss. 

In other words, this is a company whose entire business model is
dependant upon admins who don't simply disable all P2P traffic on their
network.  

I'm not discounting the reality of the p2p issues out there, but it
seems to be a solution in search of a problem.

Paul Ferguson napsal(a):
An Internet security company claims that Iran has taken advantage of a

computer security breach to obtain engineering and communications 
information about Marine One, President Barack Obama's helicopter, 
according to a report [1] by WPXI, NBC's affiliate in Pittsburgh.
  

seems like a PR against Iran.
