Interesting quote, if true:

"Having investigated intrusions such as Operation Aurora and Night Dragon (systemic long-term compromise
of Western oil and gas industry), as well as numerous others that have not been disclosed publicly, I am
convinced that every company in every conceivable industry with significant size and valuable intellectual
property and trade secrets has been compromised (or will be shortly), with the great majority of the victims
rarely discovering the intrusion or its impact. In fact, I divide the entire set of Fortune Global 2000 firms
into two categories: those that know they’ve been compromised and those that don’t yet know."

Coming from a security company, that could be viewed as self-serving FUD-spreading. OTOH, I imagine some of those Fortune Global 2000 companies have been and/or are being "protected" by McAfee, so they were compromised on McAfee's watch.
