Please pass to your Veterans and High School Students interested in InfoSec. If possible please make it an announcement on the show for the next week or so.
Defense Secretary Panetta's explosive speech, with extensive disclosure
of previously classified data (see today's first story), on top of
extraordinary statements by the head of MI5 (Jonathan Evans), combine
to speak volumes about the immediacy, scale, and ominous nature of the
newly emerging threat. In the past few months, more and more senior
officials in corporations and government agencies have concluded that
the people who have claimed that "cybersecurity isn't a technical
problem," were wrong and bear a significant part of the responsibility
for the high degree of cybersecurity vulnerability now faced by their
organizations.
Next Friday is the deadline for veterans and high school students to
register for the Cyber Foundations/CyberCenters program, that includes
on-line tutorials and challenges in three areas that are the essential
foundations of effective cybersecurity careers. Those who show talent
will earn opportunities for acceptance in the new CyberCenters program
where they will get intensive hands-on training and internships in the
only fast-track to high-paying careers in cybersecurity. Fees are very
low ($25) but may still be waived. Tell the veterans and high school
students you know who have IT talent to register at

Thank you!
