Whistleblower Snowden’s background security firm hit with fraud charges

The US Justice Department charged the government's biggest security background-checking agency of wasting millions of dollars by filing over 660,000 flawed audits on people who would eventually have access to state secrets.
The Justice Department filed a 25-page civil complaint against US Investigations Services LLC, alleging that between March 2008 and September 2012, the private firm “flushed” some 665,000 cases of flawed security checks into the pipeline of numerous federal agencies, including the Defense Department, Department of Homeland Security and the National Security Agency (NSA), thereby possibly opening the door to serious breaches of state security.
