The thing that brings us security is money. Money is powe and power is safety. That's how it affects national security.

Even so - we still have more money to burn than most other countries.

But that doesn't explain the 'heat map' as a map of industrial espionage. Egypt is 'hotter' than Germany, and Iran, Afghanistan and Syria are red hot. It makes far more sense as a map of locations of intelligence gathering interest.
