Rien de précisé concernant Israël sur la biographie de ces 2 derniers.
Concernant le firewall Zone Alarm lui même, il y a quelques années de cela, j'avais
regardé de près le trafic réseau généré par celui-ci, et je m'étais rendu compte
qu'il y avait des connexions DNS particulièrement suspectes qui pointaient
vers une de leurs adresses Internet. J'ignore si c'est toujours le cas actuellement.
(Pour ceux qui pensent à la mise à jour automatique, ce n'était pas lié à cela,
la fréquence de ces connexions DNS se comptait en secondes).
Bon, ça fait beaucoup tout ça, non ? Mais au cas où vous ne seriez pas tout à fait convaincu,
voyons un peu ce que pensent le FBI et la NSA de la société Check Point qui propose gratuitement
aux particuliers une version gratuite du firewall Zone Alarm :
In 2006 the Check Point Software Technologies company, which specializes in protecting computer systems from hackers and data theft, wanted to acquire an American company called Sourcefire, which works in the same field. The great advantage of Sourcefire was that its clients include the American Defense Department and the National Security Agency. The U.S. administration, however, by means of the Committee on Foreign Investment in the United States, did not approve the acquisition.
The committee made its decision based on an opinion by the Federal Bureau of Investigation and NSA security officers. The two organizations were afraid that Check Point, which was founded by Gil Shwed and fellow graduates of Unit 8200, the Israel Defense Forces' high-tech intelligence unit, would have access to top-secret information, which it could pass on to Israel's intelligence community.
Source :
http://www.haaretz.com/print-edition/fe ... d-1.255520A cause de l'opinion du FBI et de la NSA, La société "Check Point" n'a donc pas pu s'emparer de la société
américaine "Sourcefire", la raison de ce refus étant les liens de Check Point avec Israël !!!
