A Chinese national hired at the Arizona Counterterrorism Information Center may have stolen data from the agency before abruptly flying back to China without notifying his superiors — a possible security breach the agency has been covering up since 2007.
Lizhong Fan was hired as a facial recognition expert for the agency in 2007 until he left suddenly in June of the same year after erasing his work computers completely, destroying any record of his activities. Fan flew back to Beijing with two laptops and multiple hard drives in his luggage, according to a Pro Publica report, and he did not notify his bosses before leaving.
After disappearing Fan sent emails expressing a desire to return to the U.S. sometime in the future, but no one has reportedly received any communications from Fan in more than three years.
While working at the center Fan had access to almost all stored data, including five million drivers’ licenses, information about intelligence analysts and investigators, and other sensitive law enforcement databases.
As a current Chinese citizen Fan should have been disqualified during vetting for the position, but may have gained entry through other subversive means. Fan was contracted out to the center as an employee for Hummingbird Defense Systems
