     Thousands of files containing the personal information and
   expertise of Americans with classified and up to Top Secret
   security clearances have been exposed by an unsecured Amazon
   server, potentially for most of the year.  The files have been
   traced back to TigerSwan, a North Carolina-based private
   security firm. But in a statement on Saturday, TigerSwan
   implicated TalentPen, a third-party vendor apparently used by
   the firm to process new job applicants.
