Canada's 'secret spy agency' is releasing a malware-fighting tool to the public
The main repo seems to be here:<p><a href="https://bitbucket.org/cse-assemblyline/assemblyline/src" rel="nofollow">https://bitbucket.org/cse-assemblyline/assemblyline/src</a><p>Released under the MIT license with crown copyright. Looks like a plain ol' Flask application. I don't know what I was expecting from the government. Maybe more Microsoft and more Oracle, more "enterprise". And the git history goes back ten months with an initial commit of December 21, 2016.<p>I'm actually surprised to learn that CSE would be in charge of such a thing. I would have thought that this fell under the role of Canadian Security Intelligence Services. We definitely don't hear a lot about CSIS or CSE in the news to the point that I think most Canadians might have a hard time expanding those acronyms or know what they mean. It's good to see a little more transparency from them and to not have to wait for NSA leaks to figure out what their Canadian counterparts are up to.
