NSA Director Mike Rogers spoke at Stanford University's Hoover Institute this past weekend, and a faculty member asked him what the NSA is doing with regards to personnel security to stop another incident like Edward Snowden's release of classified documents.
Interestingly, the first and primary measure that the NSA director mentioned was polygraph testing. It's interesting because polygraphy is a thoroughly discredited pseuodoscience. It depends on the person being "tested" being ignorant of the trickery on which the procedure relies.
How ironic that America's most technologically sophisticated intelligence agency relies on early 20th century pseudoscience as the keystone of its personnel security program.
For additional commentary, see "NSA Director Mike Rogers on Polygraph Screening" on the AntiPolygraph.org blog:
