DHS Wants To Hire 1,000 Cybersecurity Experts

Posted by kdawson on Sunday October 4, 2009 @06:31AM from the even-one-would-be-nice-if-you'd-listen-to-him dept.

Cyrus writes "DHS Secretary Janet Napolitano plans to hire 1,000 security experts over the next three years. 'Department officials could not say precisely how many cyberexperts now work at DHS and its various component agencies such as the Secret Service and Immigration and Customs Enforcement. Napolitano said she doubts it will be necessary to fill all 1,000 of the authorized positions, but she is focused on making DHS a "world-class cyberorganization."'" Cringely points out, "There aren't one thousand civilian cybersecurity experts in the entire friggin' world!!!!," except he uses all caps and bold.

Yes, he is. The burden of proof is on the accuser.
Does an assertion require supporting evidence? In a formal debate, yes.
On /.? If having logically supportable arguments were a requirement to post on /. even your post would fail to make the grade.
Why? You failed to post evidence from a recognized authority on debating to support your position....
