Government spooks helped Microsoft build Vista
Wednesday, January 10th, 2007
THE USA GOVERNMENT’S cryptologic organisation, the National Security Agency, has admitted that it is behind some of the security 
changes to Microsoft’s operating system Vista. According to the Washington Post, the agency which was once so secret that it was jokingly referred to as ‘No such Agency’ has admitted making ‘unspecified contributions’ to Vista. Tony Sager, the NSA’s chief of vulnerability analysis and operations group, told the Post that it was the agency’s intention to help everyone these days.
The NSA used a red and a blue team to pull apart the software. The red team posed as "the determined, technically competent adversary" to disrupt, corrupt or steal information. The Blue team helped Defense Department system administrators with Vista’s configuration. Government spooks helped Microsoft build Vista
