Situation Report
FORT MEADE, Md. — U.S. CYBERCOM is saying “Watch out, China and Russia!” because the new faces of cyber warfare lethality are hot shots Jeff and Tina, fresh from their renowned service with the DOD Cyber Challenge.
Jeff made his mark as a Challenge information technology specialist who remotely monitored employee activities.
“He never tired of watching what employees did at their desks, day or night, even only a few hours after their arrival on first duty day,” says CYBERCOM Deputy Commander Vice Adm. Ross Myers. “It wasn’t weird at all.”
Jeff’s duties included frequently interrupting employees to remedy security issues or offering slightly positive reinforcement. Officials call his experience a rare combination of senior level technical expertise, communication skills, and values-driven performance.
