Cylink and Organized Crime?
Mr. Gene Carozza Security Public Relations Cylink Corporation Dear Mr. Carozza, We have received two recent e-mail messages concerning Cylink's alleged links to organized crime. The messages may be seen on the Web at: http://jya.com/cylinked.htm This is a serious charge. Could you provide information to answer it? Sincerely, John Young
I worked at Cylink as Manager of Business Development from April 1992 - April 1994. I reported directly to both Lew Morris (CEO) and Jim Omura (CTO) and know Jim socially, as well. I know of no instance in which I suspected Cylink had criminal ties (other than our own govenment ;-) I heard that NSA people from the Fort (Meade) did request that Cylink supply 'special' crypto devices to drug cartele clients I don't believe they were accomodated (probably not enough lead time or Cylink was offered too little money). Ademco is a major stockholder, as are Jim and Lew (~20% combined) and Renessisance Capital. --Steve
