DoD Networks Completely Compromised, Experts Say

Posted by timothy on from the but-are-they-iso-9000-compliant-is-the-question dept.

AZA43 writes "A group of U.S. federal cybersecurity experts recently said the Defense Department's network is totally compromised by foreign spies. The experts suggest the agency simply accept that its networks are compromised and will probably remain that way, then come up with a way to protect data on infected machines and networks."

  1. dump the contractors and sub contractors move it by Joe_Dragon · · Score: 1, Offtopic

    dump the contractors and sub contractors move it in house so not only do you cut out a lot middle man you also get more control.

    More control is nice so you don't have people who get moved site to site or have to go thought a reapply for the same job you have now paper work.

    Also it lets you say have trading and other stuff with out the staffing agencies say we don't want to pay for that or we don't or cut to go down paying for time off / travel time / costs come out of own margin. This one guy on a contract said that the staffing firm did not like having to pay for the paid time (part of the over all deal) as it came out of there margin.
