This discovery and write-up was an awesome read but I do disagree on the price critique. 70K seems relatively inexpensive for deployment of an app at a state level, let alone development of an app. Proof of Concept, perhaps but what does a full security audit cost these days? If anything I would be concerned that the budget did not include those kinds of factors and should have cost a bit more :)

This article does lead me to wonder if Rave has missed an opportunity - installation of an app on Crestron / Andoird room automation systems that accomplish similar things. That would take the mobile component out but still have a benefit from a facilities / awareness perspective.
