By the time things (like movies, operating systems or conventions) hit ten, they have generally switched to roman numerals. For Defcon, Jason and the OS, it is simply the number ten. X in the generation is for the "unknown" - i.e., a generation without identity.
(Editor’s note: Some names have been removed due to the sensitivity of the Air Force cybersecurity mission.X is something different in each of your examples. “How cool of a dialogue is that? Our presence shows others what we’re trying to do – protect the nation.” “As I look around I see that our Air Force is represented on over half of this floor, including and an F-35 simulator,” Thompson said. That’s what our jobs are all about.”Īccording to Thompson, the conference provided many opportunities to showcase the Air Force’s advances in aviation and cybersecurity. When you don’t have the answer you have to break the problem down and figure it out. “All in all this builds a lot of confidence. “Competing can be frustrating at times, but when you’re brought up against a challenge, you have to have an attitude to beat that challenge before moving on to the next challenge,” the master sergeant said. At one point first was just barely out of reach, but when the competition wrapped, the team placed third overall. The master sergeant’s team held the second place position within the Industrial Control Systems CTF for much of the competition. It’s a very good form of training that’s hard to replicate anywhere else.” “Some of us work together, but some don’t, so the CTFs gives us the opportunity to come together, build on our skill sets or learn new skills. “This helps build our comradery as a unit, similar to a temporary duty assignment or deployment,” said a 67th Cyberspace Wing CWO master sergeant.

According to one participant, there was plenty more to gain from competition than just the first place “black badge” – a lifetime’s free admission to DEF CON. Not too far away Air Force cyber warfare operators competed against some of the nation's best hackers in several CTFs. “It was great because it gave us the chance to talk about the importance of Industrial Control Systems and Supervisory Control and Data Acquisition across the Department of Defense.” Will Roper, (assistant secretary of the Air Force for acquisition, technology and logistics),” Thompson said. The 90th COS Airmen presented BIL to thousands of attendees, including dozens of reporters and one distinguished visitor. “This cyber-physical interface provides the ground truth for our operators.” it causes an effect on the model itself,” he explained. The reason for this automation is simple, or rather, Thompson puts it simply. “On it you can see approach lights, runway lights, taxiway lights. “What we have is a toy brick model of an Air Force base,” said Scott Thompson, 90th COS systems engineer. The 90th Cyberspace Operations Squadron showcased their “Bricks in the Loop” cyber-physical display. Of those in attendance were several Air Forces Cyber Airmen who presented their technologies or participated in cyber competitions. Throughout the four-day event, attendees could learn new skills from industry professionals, test those skills during capture-the-flag competitions, network with others, interview for jobs and test out products and simulators, among other things. Spread across several hotels on the Las Vegas strip, nearly 30,000 cyber enthusiasts gathered for the 27th annual DEF CON Hacking Conference, Aug. JOINT BASE SAN ANTONIO-LACKLAND, Texas (AFNS).
