From reading the paper, it seems like it would be difficult for a private hacking group to manage but completely doable for someone like the NSA. They could outfit an entire team to work somewhere else for an extended period of time, making behavior profiles unreliable.

Why would the NSA bother with hacking American companies? The American security establishment is only one warrant or national security letter away from getting all the information they need from any of these companies.

The NSA has plenty of reasons it might want to infiltrate the DHS or other agencies.
