The Champs - Tequila

The DoD will soon be requiring itself and Contractors to start following Rev 5 of the NIST SP 800-53 Risk Management Framework. In this revision are more robust controls for Supply-side security, which the DoD has been trying to incorporate for over 10 years.

Americans should know that the military and DOD and it’s contractors do their best to purchase authentic hardware from reputable vendors, but there are exceptions and alternate procurement allowances if the need is great and the standard more secure lines are unavailable or simply on back order.

It’s usually then that some of the fake hardware makes it into use

My Advanced English class in High School made me read the stort story Bloodchild.

That was pretty WTF for me at the time.

Is Gmail still the preferred email address to use on resumes?

I actually have a multiple choice question on my General User training that goes something like:

If someone attempts to elicit classified information from you, and a heated argument erupts, what action should you take?

A) Inform Company Security of the event

B) Provide a non-answer and defer or distract from the current line of questioning

C) Prove them wrong by giving them the classified information

D) A & B

So far no one has chosen C, thankfully.

Me @27 IT is boring and the wages suck, I lack human empathy so I’ll try Defense Contracting

Me @36 Well the money is great, but the risk of Engineers spilling national security secrets every day is stressful AF.

Like most Chinese products I wouldn’t trust their quality or their customer support, and would expect the thing to spy on me 24/7.
