It could all blow up into a major row as the director of the National Cyber Security Center (NCSC), Rod Beckström, has suddenly resigned. Wired.com obtained a copy of his resignation letter in which he claimed:
"During the past year the NCSC received only five weeks of funding, due to various roadblocks engineered within the department and by the Office of Management and Budget."
The NCSC is part of the Department of Homeland Security (DHS), and it was just last year that Beckström was named to his post, an odd choice since his experience was in management, not security.
