The Army Bug Bounty Program: a Critical Need In Defense (cyberdefensereview.org)
hypercard writes: It seems just about every major tech company and even a few other large non-tech corporations have bug bounty programs as part of an effort to improve security through a community effort. Captains Rock Stevens and Michael Weigand, both Cyber officers in the U.S. Army, recently published Army Vulnerability Response Program, an outline for a legal way of disclosing bugs in Army software and networks. They say, "[T]he Army does not have a central location for responsibly disclosing vulnerabilities found through daily use, much less a program that can permit active security assessments of networks or software solutions. Without a legal means to disclose vulnerabilities in Army software or networks, vulnerabilities are going unreported and unresolved."
Naming your kid after an obviously comic-book-based superhero like: "Captain Rock Stevens".

The US Army doesn't like USB port on laptops, and the like, so they are physically disabled. US Army Dental Surgeons, specialists in things like peritonitis, my want to leave the army later, and go into a private practice. For that they need pictures of patients, documenting what they have done. They have the pictures on their machines, but can't copy them onto a USB stick, because the military does not want that.
So what does a smart US Army Dental Surgeon do . . . ? Well, he figures out that he can send a picture to their printer . . . which happens to have a USB port for a memory stick. And then he can just save the pictures using this method.
What do I win . . . ?
