Depends how paranoid you want to be, and to what degree of certainty (after all it's impossible to prove a negative).

But in general, backdoors for "the good guys" are just more surface area for "the bad guys", and developers of products which take security seriously lock themselves out too.

Is this about installing backdoors? Or is it just about ensuring the network doesn't run on known-compromised hardware/software?
