We are getting are arses kicked on the Cyber front...and the enemies of the US know it...
I just passed my CHFI exam today to finalize over a yr and half of cyber warfare training...and I still have my CEH to gain soon...The US went from Counter-insurgency right into a huge cyber front they were unprepared for...Cyber Command is scrambling for qualified and certified people who are willing to get a SSBI and polygraph....and there’s not enough college grads with IT security degrees that want the US govt digging into their lives...current soldiers/officers are being re-trained and re-tasked for this purpose - but it takes time....welcome to the eBattlefield!
I think it borders on criminal negligence, that the powers that be allowed is us to fall behind our enemies, but better late than never I guess.
