There's a recent notice that the CIA has become an associate member of the Microelectronics and Computer Technology Corporation <www.mcc.com>, the research consortium of several high-tech firms located in Austin. The notice also lists a project there called "InfoSleuth." See the notice (among other national security opportunities) at: http://jya.com/nso040898.htm A reporter working on the story has asked for any information on the CIA enrollment and InfoSleuth. Send it to her, or to me if a cut-out is needed: Heather Harreld, senior reporter covering security at Federal Computer Week in Washington. heather@fcw.com
You will need to verify these facts. I believe that the InfoSleuth project was the code name for InfoGlide a data-mining startup currently located in the mcc building. They create advanced databases for fraud prevention and law enforcement applications. http://www.infoglide.com Call David Wheeler, founder of the company to verify the InfoSleuth connection 512-305-0267 At 07:32 PM 4/8/98 -0400, John Young wrote:
