think about it

they’re everywhere

in every company

they manage the pipelines

design, maintain

the routes of the most sensitive data

now, of course, there’s cryptography

that’s great at keeping individual bits locked

but zoom out further

every IT professional

either work for a company with robust protocols to keep their data safe

or work for a company that works for another, with non-disclosure agreements up the wazoo

So that’s fine; all the data stays tucked away, high in the cloud

But what’s between the lines?

What can be inferred by what is not said?

Which companies have agreements with whom?

And the boots on the ground, they know where at least some of the bodies are buried

They know what they’re asked to do and not do

But they have an idea of what is what and what goes where

So, in the lines between what is not said, as much from what is

Could be pieced together the most valuable

Dangerous and incendiary secrets
