Osters concerns were even more troubling than McAfees. His charges against healthcare.gov included:
ICCS, the international governing body for cyber security, refused to certify healthcare.gov a secure site because it didnt meet cyber security standards. They launched that site knowing that there were grave concerns in the security, Oster said.
When it was launched Healthcare.gov didnt comply with the federal governments rules for online security.
An Obama administration memo obtained by Congress indicates that the administration EXEMPTED healthcare.gov from the normal cyber security procedures for federal websites.
One of the main concerns Oster had about Healthcare.gov is that it redirects users to other websites without having them pass through additional layers of security.
Impeach, fire, remove all involved. Repeal.
“When it was launched Healthcare.gov didnt comply with the federal governments rules...”
Obama didn’t comply with the rules when he ran for president. Why would anything else he does be any different?

"Their bank accounts are going to be emptied not just by hackers but by the exchanges themselves because there are no controls, McAfee said, there are no security points that can guarantee the security of our data.
This brings up an issue that occurred to me earlier: While I doubt the Chinese would want to crash the U.S. economy, and probably the same could be said for Russia -- it's not in their best interest at present, the same cannot be said of Iran, North Korea, etc.
1) Could a large scale, sophisticated operation "vacuum out" or otherwise steal enough funds, fast enough, from enough peoples' accounts, to disrupt the U.S. economy? I tend to think "probably not", but others likely have a better informed opinion.
2) Could a large scale attempt per "1" above, even if only partially successful, create enough panic in the US to disrupt its economy? Here I tend to think "quite possibly so". This then might become a matter of immediate economic security, if not national security.
Opinions?
