      Not everyone does trust them. However you'd struggle to buy security tech from anyone trustworthy - though of course that all depends on what you business is and who your likely adversaries are (the IDF?). Lots of companies struggle to keep script kiddies out so they shouldn't worry themselves about the IDF.

        Would trust it as much as I trust software from Blighty or the US. Slightly more than I would trust software from Russia and orders of magnitude more than I would trust software from virtually any other country.

        Suspect if I was running a Middle Eastern dictatorship I would be a little more leery though and buy it through a reseller instead.
