The existence of hidden backdoors in companies' software whether installed deliberately or mandated by the government is an issue that neither the US Government nor companies want the public to know. Especially after it was revealed to the public in 2013 by Edward Snowden that both the US Government and private companies were keeping hidden backdoors that affect public safety and privacy (Kelly, 2015). Companies do not report any backdoors discovered since it may provoke a public relations scandal that can affect the company's reputation and its market share. The US Government, on the other hand, would want to keep their interactions with the companies as a secret due to national security concerns. This study aims at identifying whether private companies are compelled by the government to place backdoors in their technological systems. The data was obtained from legal cases and media leaks since most information had been sealed by the government and the Foreign Intelligence Surveillance Court (FISC). The findings from the study indicate that the US government compels companies in the private sectors to place hidden backdoors in their software and hardware for surveillance purposes. Yahoo is one example among many companies that have been compelled by the government to give them access to user data under the Protect America Act and other laws. Research indicates that hidden backdoors mostly affects the majority of unsuspecting people while the tech-savvy criminals avoid detection. This study recommends that the government should implement laws that protect the citizens and become more transparent. In addition, technological companies should not leave backdoors that make their customers vulnerable to attacks.
