Her role is to find flaws.

....and she found some pretty huge ones, no matter how you try to
minimize it.

No system is perfect. But you can bet that this
items are being worked on.

Funny, a couple of posts back, you assured us that the Canadian system
wasn't in need of such work...

I bet that if she were to audit the US systems, it would look far
worse and with far worse problems (for instance, private jetblue data
making it to some conference presentation by a consulting firm).

So one error (someone using information they collected in an incorrect
manner) is worse than systemic problems (the various ones shown by a
Canadian audit, that showed terrorists have a lot of gaps they could
exploit, like terrible and incomplete records on stolen Canadian
passports)?

And, once again, the question here isn't the theoretical flaws in the US
system - it's that you were claiming that the Canadian security system
was so good no terrorists could get through (which the Canadian audit
showed to be *very* false).
