- jabedude 6y agoI don't think this is true. The gold standard of entry-level infosec training in the US military is the Joint Cyber Analysis Course in Pensacola, FL, taught by the Navy.
- phaus 6y agoI got out a couple of years ago. Their Cyber program is much better than most of their other technical training but it was heavily influenced by what other branches were doing. Maybe they changed it but another thing is that their cyber training was mostly SANS courses and the joint course someone else already mentioned. So it was good because it was some of the better training offered by the private sector. I have met some ex NSA guys from the Army that were amazing. Not really sure what kind of training they got. Their experience isn't really a good representation of IT as a whole in the Army. There are exceptions to everything. There are small teams/groups within every branch of the military doing really cool stuff. Some of them have many more opportunities for excellent training that the average person in a similar role in the Army will have. >Other branches send their people to gordon for it. Also, a lot of the technical schools at Gordon had instructors from the Air Force and the Navy teaching alongside the Army.
