Google and NSA

In an earlier post, I wrote about the problems of cyber-attacks on corporate infrastucture giving as an example the attack on Google. Well, it seems that Google has now teamed up with the National Security Agency (NSA) to investigate the attack. What this means and how far will this agreement will go is up for speculation. But at least in my opinion this is a good start. The NSA is tasked with monitoring communications across the world for the protection of the US. Anything federal agencies can do to enhence the protection of US corporations is positive news.
