He also received $30,000 a year to spend an hour a week chairing the Intelligence and National Security Alliance (INSA), a group representing 150 security corporations that describes itself as a "catalyst for public-private partnerships," rather than a lobbying body.
Mr Brennan carefully obeyed ethics rules limiting conflicts of interest among officials moving to the private sector. Yet his profitable spin through the revolving doors separating Washington's corridors of power and the corporate boardrooms of northern Virginia remains troubling for some former colleagues.
