  4. Amit Yoran • “There is a tremendous amount of expertise at N.S.A. but I also agree that it would be a significant detriment to the nation to let the N.S.A. be the lead agency running cyberprograms. There is an inherent conflict of interest between their intelligence mission and the mission of the folks doing cyber.”
