U.S. regulators are investigating how a multi-million-dollar storage system from NetApp Inc. came to underpin a sweeping Internet-surveillance system being built last year for the Syrian regime of President Bashar al-Assad.
The U.S. Department of Commerce’s Bureau of Industry and Security is conducting the probe, according to department spokesman Eugene Cottilli. “The investigation is ongoing,” he said.
