Fears of a Security Brain Drain
Annalee Newitz , SecurityFocus 2002-04-10

Some computer security professionals are already feeling the pinch from a new Defense Department policy discouraging contractors from hiring non-citizens. The Pentagon says it's about loyalty; visa holders call it classic xenophobia.

Just to put some hard facts to this matter.

I am a US Citizen that worked for the DOD for a long period of time and am very familiar with many of their systems, procedures, and methods. Recently I was laid off and NOT A SINGLE DOD CONTRACTOR would reply to any applications I submitted for work. I have several degrees and have worked in the security area for over 10 years.

Fears of a Brain Drain--- give me a break....
