 Is this sensitive info?
 Given that I saw this on the history channel the other night, I'd
 say no. :)
One of the lessons we were taught in our security briefings was that just because something was publicly discussed somewhere (e.g., on a television show or in the newspaper) does not automatically make the information unclassified.

I personally know of classified data that has been leaked and published in print, and that's about all I'll say on that particular subject.


However, with respect to the windows and the masking system, I have not been told that this information is classified or sensitive.
