Nobody ever manually maintains inventory correctly. That's why automated systems are supposed to scan networks and inform the inventory of what is actually there, versus what is "supposed to be there".
Lack of training doesn't matter at all. This is just a mechanism to blame people, it doesn't ensure security at all.
And of course JPL doesn't have a mechanism to allow DHS to scan its entire network. Nobody has a big red button that says "please provide a back door in every single security policy we have for one party to do whatever they want".
This whole report is bullshit designed to place blame. Why is anyone taking this seriously?
- jacquesm 7y ago> inform the inventory of what is actually there This works very well to identify stuff that actually answers and will yield devices that are not supposed to be there in the first place but someone planning mischief is not going to place a device that is easily identified like that.
