"I'm confident he is the right person for the job" due to his technical background and attitude, FBI Chief Information Officer Zalmai Azmi said at a briefing.
The announcement of Lazarevich to lead Sentinel, which will replace the embattled and abandoned Virtual Case File (VCF) project, came as Azmi refuted recent news reports about VCF.
Azmi rebutted a story that said FBI officials estimated the cost for a replacement at $792 million, more than seven times the initial $104 million pricetag. He also dismissed a report that said the agency never disclosed to its contractor, Science Applications International Corp., that it had identified 400 problems with VCF software.
