Poland compromised NATO secrets and communication system

Wojciech S., the Military Intelligence (WSI) lieutenant arrested for spying on December 30 last year, is still in prison. It was revealed that he not only had access to Cronos, the communication system used by NATO and its allies, but that maintaining the system was his primary duty. Wojciech S. was responsible for the Cronos terminal in the the Warsaw headquarters of the WSI. His immediate boss was WSI director Marek Dukaczewski. Wojciech S. had access to all classified files. Although he did not know all the access codes, he had almost unlimited access to confidential data. As he tried to become a spy, Wojciech S. contacted the Russian embassy by phone twice. The Russians were interested, so he printed out over 100 pages of classified files, just to show his potential. These files were found later in his car when he was arrested. It was also revealed that his wife, who also used to work for Military Intelligence, knew businesspeople from Belarus who were also suspected of spying. (Gazeta Wyborcza, p. 10) D.W.
