NK did not hack sony, according to security experts

You forgot the 5th and most important evidence that these "experts" are not really. Consider the source. The Daily Mail is full of hooey most of the time. I dismiss the whole thing as a publicity stunt.

If it was just the Daily Mail, I would absolutely and utterly agree with you. However, a number of computer security sources agree with the daily mail, with information coming before the article in the Daily Mail. it isn't just the governments that could examine the malware, but anybody with access to a sample of it.
 
I heard a couple of people say it was an inside job for publicity. If that is the case, they should answer for the chaos they have created and the possible ripple effects it may cause.
Whatever went on, it made us more aware of how vulnerable we really are.

Considering the magnitude of the attack, and the information revealed, it wouldn't be for publicity. I would not trust any certificate, any data, or anything coming out of Sony, and it will take a great deal of effort to repair the trust. The reason it would be an inside job is that they do not treat their IT employees very well, low pay, poor benefits. It's pretty stupid to mistreat the employees who you give the 'keys to the kingdom' in i.t. that have potentially has access to all the data for running a business.
 
Sorry you're wrong.

"The NSA is also charged with the protection of U.S. government communications and information systems against penetration and network warefare."

National Security Agency - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Actually I am right.. US Government, not the US. Two different things we are talking about here. NSA does **** all to protect US companies or even US citizens from hacking. In fact NSA hacks and tries to break encryption codes of US companies and US citizens.

Hey you guys ever heard of the former Ft. Devens and know what was headquartered there? I bet not. I spent a few years there among some very bright people.

United States Army Security Agency? Which merged with MI and became INSCOM in 1976? :2razz:
 
Was pretty obvious this was done for Hollywood to promote the movie to uber-patriots.

Wrong again. American corporations are part of our national security and therefore fall under government protection to some extent. If that was not the case the FBI would have no interest in pursuing the matter. Our CIC even said so with the recent crap NK pulled.

You make the NSA sound like an enemy of the state. Bull****.

Sure it was. :doh

If you would bother to look at the millions of dollars damage that was done to Sony you would know better.

1 corporation should not fall under national security. For American entreupeuers should vibrantly fill in the spot of a single company. Simply an excuse.
 
North Korea was NOT behind the Sony hack according to multiple security experts | Daily Mail Online



If it was an inside job then it definitely would've been in the best interest of the FBI to blame it on a foreign enemy. If it was an inside job, what could this mean for internal security in the United States?

I also find the Russia connection rather interesting.
Of course it was an inside job. The 3rd gunman from the grassy knoll in the Arizona desert where NASA filmed the fake moon landing caused co2 levels in Arctic ice-cores to prevent jet fuel from melting steel because everyone on those aircraft were killed by the CIA when ancient aliens dropped off the loch ness monster in the Bermuda triangle on orders from George Bush.

American corporations are not part of national security. FBI gets involved because it's a crime, not because it's in the "vital" interest of the US.. and that's a major difference.

NSA is an enemy of the state. It's sole job is to hijack communications; establish back doors for listening any time to protect the State, not the people. But I get it, you are part of the old guard you didn't have all that "fancy" stuff they have to day.. and internet was in it's infancy. But today.. NSA is evil and should be neutered and I state this as a guy who's never worked for the NSA but do know many who have in different capacities and the first thing they always say is.. if only you actually knew the full truth.

I wondered how long it would be before we went straight conspiracy nonsense. Lasted longer than I thought.

The American economy and its corporations are vital to national security. What you're saying makes no sense.

Entrepeneurs fall under that net too.

More Bull****. And I know a lot more than you think I do.

Sure a few of our agencies do clandestine things for our benefit but that doesn't make them an enemy of the state.

I never said you didn't know anything. ;)

Our benefit?!?! Tell me how Data mining my personal info or even yours is to our benefit when it's illegal under the 4th Amendment.
 
Sure you do. You're also paranoid judging by your posts.

Aren't you missing your favorite series Person of Interest?

Nope, not paranoid. As paranoid is a thought process believed to be heavily influenced by anxiety or fear, often to the point of irrationality and delusion (wiki). I am none of those. Rather I am informed and seek caution for Government agencies which routinely overstep their bounds.

NSA violations
How often NSA ignores the law.
'Member AT&T scandal?

I am not even gonna cover NSA's backdoors in Window products.

I'll give you this to think about.. 98 Kilo/35 Sierra. TS/SCI clearance. Do you feel me now?

And no.. don't watch Person of Interest.
