"Stay away from it" says cybersecurity expert David Kennedy, a former NSA analyst and CEO of TrustedSec who is hired by big companies to test the security of their computer systems. In an interview this afternoon with Hannity, he gives the healthcare.gov website a rating of 1 or 2 in terms of security. He warns people not to go onto the website because it is simply not safe.

A 1 or 2 on security, and this is after Obama's 'tech surge.' Unbelievable.

I have a security company. We posted a blog about how poor it was. HHS was on my site reading the article.

was this a purposeful “set of glitchs”

that is to say could they have purposefully put forth such a mess in order to further the Singe Payer Agenda?

More like incompetence from what we could tell. They simply didn’t do the things they were supposed too.

FWIW we did the security audit for one of the state sites. They actually had their act together but the pressure to pencil whip it was immense.

What is even scarier is the website connects to computers containing very personal information about citizens. An identity thief’s dream.

They violated numerous federal laws and a host of federal regulations to put that system online. There is no way it should have been given approval.

There have probably been more hackers in the system then legit users.

Value of the information per record. You can sell the info on the internet.

SSN = 50 cents
An Identity = $1
Medical identity = $50

The fact that one’s identity can be stolen from the lack of security protocols should be in every law suit against the federal government. People should ban together for resources to file these suits against the federal govt. in order to halt and then destroy the ACA.

There are case after case example of what a stolen identity can do to one’s financial record and unless the govt is going to automatically wipe any damages from such electronic fraud - then NO ONE should be forced or FINED for not signing up.

That’s just my opinion - I’m covered by the VA - but if I wasn’t - I would be hiring a lawyer to file a suit against the IRS on why I shouldn’t be fined for the lack of govt common sense in the implementation of a website that is so vulnerable everyone knows it and is sitting there waiting to intercept data that will ruin the average US citizen’s financial record just so 3 million people can have health insurance..or whatever the excuse was to pass the POS bill...

Well, the founder of Amazon actually set up a working operationn from his mother’s kitchen and garage, if I remember. So at least he isn’t a retard.

Obama, on the other hand...

I doubt it, it was too embarrassing. The end result of the law is one payer. Even if the website worked.

They gave it to this company because its owned by a huge donor.

lol.

Ask yourself how many of the “tech surge” are balaclava-wearing members of Occupy.

Some 400lb IBM FELLOWs are :).

well - people have law suits against Kathleen Sebelius...so perhaps the people who are running the show or agency - that represents the govt entitiy.

yes - difficult - it can happen...targeting specific agencies...
