Ah yes, back when the US actually had cyber defence and experts capable of working in their respective fields.
- philipallstar 7mo agoThey're the ones that had the Microsoft tech procured and implemented.
- evanjrowley 7mo agoThis, exactly. There are so many "cyber experts" working for the U.S. government, and the vast majority are just cogs in a machine constructed by executive leadership who will always prefer inertia over radical changes.
- philipallstar 7mo agoI don't think this is that much to do with executive leadership. Many of those cyber experts only have a job because of Microsoft based tooling and vulnerabilities, and so they will prefer things they know over things they don't know (e.g. implementing permissions across a Linux estate).
- ceejayoz 7mo agoThere's a decent chance they're the ones who said "no!" and got overruled. (See also: quite a few bits of COVID mitigation)
