Read a website:
"RSA BSAFE Crypto Kernel offers versions of popular cryptographic
algorithms optimized for both small code size and high performance.
Unlike alternatives such as open source, our technology is backed by
highly regarded cryptographic experts."
They make the promise above, and in many other places and times. They
delivered the DUAL_EC against that promise.
Also, we have the fact that they ignored the warnings that came out
about DUAL_EC, from around 2007 - 2013.
In short, their highly regarded cryptographic experts were not deployed,
not available, not on that job.
