										<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>At Verizon, a developer outsourced his job to China and he spent most of the time at office surfing social sites.</p>
<p>Excerpt from Verizon&#8217;s security Blog.</p>
<blockquote><p>As it turns out, Bob had simply outsourced his own job to a Chinese consulting firm. <strong>Bob spent less that one fifth of his six-figure salary for a Chinese firm to do his job for him.</strong></p>
<p>Authentication was no problem, <strong>he physically FedExed his RSA token to China so that the third-party contractor could log-in under his credentials during the workday</strong>. It would appear that he was working an average 9 to 5 work day. Investigators checked his web browsing history, and that told the whole story.</p>
</blockquote>
<blockquote><p>9:00 a.m. – Arrive and surf Reddit for a couple of hours. Watch cat videos<br />
11:30 a.m. – Take lunch<br />
1:00 p.m. – Ebay time.<br />
2:00 – ish p.m Facebook updates – LinkedIn<br />
4:30 p.m. – End of day update e-mail to management.<br />
5:00 p.m. – Go home</p>
</blockquote>
<blockquote><p>The best part?<br />
Investigators had the opportunity to read through his performance reviews while working alongside HR. For the last several years in a row he received excellent remarks. His code was clean, well written, and submitted in a timely fashion. Quarter after quarter, <strong>his performance review noted him as the best developer in the building</strong></p>
