Marine One Security Breached

“A company that monitors peer-to-peer file-sharing networks has discovered a potentially serious security breach involving President Barack Obama’s helicopter, NBC affiliate WPXI in Pittsburgh reported Saturday.

Employees of Tiversa, a Cranberry Township, Pa.-based security company that specializes in peer-to-peer technology, reportedly found engineering and communications information about Marine One at an IP address in Tehran, Iran.

Bob Boback, CEO of Tiversa, told WPXI-TV: “We found a file containing entire blueprints and avionics package for Marine One, which is the president’s helicopter.”"

The blueprints for Marine One on a P2P network?  Who the hell allowed that to happen?  The contractor involved in the decisions that led to this blueprint being eventually downloaded by IP address in Iran needs to have its contract terminated–and let the contractor deal with its network people on its own terms.
