The NSA helped out Microsoft in developing Windows Vista security features as the Washington Post reports. According to Microsoft, who confirmed the report, there was a “red team” who did penetration tests on Windows Vista and a “blue team” who guided system administrators of the Defense Department.
Of course it looks suspicious if the worldwide market leader (how they got there is another questions?!) cooperates with the worlds largest intelligence agency in security measures of it’s upcoming operating system (backdoor?).
