I have dealt with some nasty ones over the years.

Why the fuck do we keep allowing the overseas outsourcing of our IT resources? You don't think these motherfuckers have a million back doors built into their cut rate code?

:ponder

Too late to do anything about it now. What's done is done. Your banker wanker bosses have a fool proof strangle hold on our very lives.

The outsourced developers I work with may understand what a certain line of code does or how to look up a row in a database table, but they don't have the big picture of how the product actually works. What I'm saying is that I don't know how you can make an attack on a product if you don't understand how the product makes money for the client. The biggest concern would be them just taking it down entirely.

I'm not talking about app developers only. We had a guy on our infrastructure group who was a member of the Taliban or some such group. The FBI came looking for him about a week after his contract expired and he went back to Pakistan. They went through every every machine he built or system he configured.

LOL that sucks.

Our outsourced team is in India, less chance of Taliban there.
