G’Day from Day Two of Australian Defence Magazine’s 3rd Annual Cyber Security Summit from Canberra, Australia…

It was hilarious yesterday as pasty late middle aged Americans stormed into Canberra from two major DoD Contractors. Describing in acronym laden, nervous voices how they could save the Australian defense world both from themselves and the giant new menace called China…with, get this, VAPOR FRICKIN’ WARE…yes the boys from NGC and Raytheon came in for only their speaking portions and announced they would save the world and then left – typical disingenuous American behavior overseas – it was as if they, as American businessmen are too important to develop relationships here in Canberra… C’mon guys if you are the best from these two companies then executive leadership should review hiring practices at NGC & Raytheon…enough ranting…
