New DSB report - Foreign Influence on DoD Software

The Defense Science Board (DSB) has posted a new report.

The report on Mission Impact of Foreign Influence on DoD Software can be found at
http://www.acq.osd.mil/dsb/reports/2007-09-Mission_Impact_of_Foreign_Influence_on_DoD_Software.pdf

According to the memorandum of endorsement by Dr. Schneider, this report
"was established to complement the 2005 DSB study on High Performance
Microchip Supply which focused on the implications of semiconductor
fabrication in foreign countries. The task force found that the DoD
faces similar consequences from the possible exploitation of software,
increasingly developed outside of the United States, it its systems."
