Bank of America seeking help from CIA connected firm
NY Times - The day after Julian Assange of WikiLeaks threatened to "take down" a major American bank, the shares of Bank of America fell 3 percent. . . Since then, a team of 15 to 20 top Bank of America officials, led by the chief risk officer, Bruce R. Thompson, has been overseeing a broad internal investigation scouring thousands of documents in the event that they become public, reviewing every case where a computer has gone missing and hunting for any sign that its systems might have been compromised.
In addition to the internal team drawn from departments like finance, technology, legal and communications, the bank has brought in Booz Allen Hamilton, the consulting firm, to help manage the review. It has also sought advice from several top law firms about legal problems that could arise from a disclosure, including the bank's potential liability if private information was disclosed about clients.
=x-347-543749]Privacy International 2006 - Booz Allen Hamilton, Inc., a prominent defense and intelligence consulting and engineering firm, has been hired as an outside "independent" auditor of the CIA and Treasury Department's Terrorist Finance Tracking Program, which monitors banking transactions made through the Society for Worldwide Interbank Financial Telecommunication. Though Booz Allen's role is to verify that the access to the SWIFT data is not abused, its relationship with the U.S. Government calls its objectivity significantly into question. Booz Allen is one of the largest U.S. government contractors, with hundreds of millions of dollars in U.S. government contracts awarded each year. Booz Allen has a history of working closely with U.S. government agencies on electronic surveillance, including the Total Information Awareness program. Among Booz Allen's senior consulting staff are several former members of the intelligence community, including a former Director of the C.I.A. and a former director of the N.S.A. In its private consulting practice, Booz Allen has been at the forefront of the push to increased information sharing.

This firm is just finishing up a consulting contract with the VA hospital that I go to.It kind of creeps me out when I think about them having full access to the hospitals data files.

Wide hackable electronic access to private medical data is the new avenue for total information awareness. It is likely to be deadly if I understand the degree to which genetic data can be discovered, hacked and used for weaponry. It's been referenced in the PNAC document, was active before hand, was referenced in Seymour's "Last Circle", is implied in bio-warfare, and is clearly one of the four horseman of the coming apocalypse.

...I Agree!...but I'm sure if asked, their PR company will say 'better safe, than sorry'!angryfire :phone: angryfire
Personally, I can't wait to see these documents.....and see what happens to their stock...and how many of their senior staff suddenly have a bad case of suicides......defenestration, if their main buildings are tall and have windows that open...but there are an infinite number of other ways....angryfire
