The #CIA unclassified email listed all employees hired by the agency over the last 2 yrs; fmr ofcls the move risks #leaking the list to #adversaries.
The list included first names & the first initial of the last name of the new hires, who are still on probation—& thus easy to dismiss. It included a large crop of young #analysts & #operatives who were hired specifically to focus on #China, & whose identities are usually closely guarded because Chinese #hackers are constantly seeking to ID them.

#CNN Admits 'Disturbing' #israelpalestine Coverage Policy 'Has Been in Place for Years'
"It's #Israel's way of intimidating and controlling #news,"
CNN has long been criticized by media #analysts and #journalists for its deference to the Israeli government and the Israel Defense Forces in its coverage of the occupied #Palestinian territories, and the cable network admitted Thursday that it follows a protocol that could give Israeli censors influence over its stories.
The Women Who Saw 9/11 Coming
Many of the CIA analysts who spotted the earliest signs of al-Qaeda’s rise were female. They had trouble getting their warnings heard.

@TomWellborn @hamedalazri you're not wrong.
I've seen a similar problem over the last few years when hiring #analysts and #data #scientists—many can leverage easy-to-use ML libraries to build a fancy model, but don't know basic stats or which tests they should be using for what. When those models can become the deciding factor in things like who gets a loan or what medicines gets covered by insurance, it has potentially nasty consequences.
Tech multiplying human ability is amazing, but the lack of understanding and responsibility that can grow in those conditions is the scary part (to me).

@SwiftOnSecurity #backstory I always just liked #computers and enjoy #helping people. Originally in #highschool I thought I'd like to be a #psychologist or something of the sorts. But the job security and money seemed more appealing than than saving actual lives unfortunately.
I had an interview with Amazon shortly before graduating #undergrad, and made it all the way to final round where they flew me out, paid for my meals, the whole thing. I didn't get it and this crushed me for a minute.
Even though I got my #bachelors degree right after high school in #cybersecurity, I started off in support because I just couldn't land my first cyber job directly. It was very disheartening.
I got promoted from my first job to a network #analysts (small/medium company but 16 sites). I earned my networking grit from this by designing a whole network for a new location from the ground up. Including the rack, phone systems, WAP's, #firewall, #network segmentation. I got tired of running actual cables however so I switch to their systems role and finished my time at that company after 1.5 years.
Following that I've had a couple jobs in the #finance industry (doing cyber). My primary focus has been PKI but I honestly hate it and I've been in it for almost 3 years.
Looking forward, I wanna do something more exciting and more challenging again. PKI isn't exciting enough for my #ADHD brain, too repetitive. I can't figure out where in security I want to move to next but I know it's not this.
Thanks for reading if you made it this far. =)
