The NSA's Cyber-King Goes Corporate
(Foreign Policy): http://www.foreignpolicy.com/articles/2014/07/29/the_crypto_king_of_the_NSA_goes_corporate_keith_alexander_patents
"Keith Alexander, the recently retired director of the National
Security Agency, left many in Washington slack-jawed when it was
reported that he might charge companies up to $1 million a month to
help them protect their computer networks from hackers. What insights
or expertise about cybersecurity could possibly justify such a
sky-high fee, some wondered, even for a man as well-connected in the
military-industrial complex as the former head of the nation's largest
intelligence agency?"
