Earlier this year, the New York Times reported that an unknown federal agency had breached official White House policy and used secretive methods to conduct a business deal with the NSO Group, a blacklisted spyware vendor known for selling powerful surveillance tools. The agency in question not only brazenly disobeyed the government’s official policy, but had also used a front company to facilitate the deal, suggesting that it knew what was happening was not exactly kosher.

The bureau was ordered to find out which government agency broke with White House policy and engaged a blacklisted spyware vendor. It found...itself.

There are hundreds of thousands of vacant U.S. cyber jobs.

Days after NSO Group was blacklisted, an FBI contractor renewed its contract with Israeli-company for a geolocation tool.

After a Times report, the bureau canceled its contract with a government contractor that used the tool on its behalf. But questions remain.
