*** Welcome to the latest edition of the number one Defense Career Opportunities Newsletter, “DEFCON-1,” a networking newsletter featuring job opportunities and career advice for those who are part of the global defense, aerospace, maritime, marine technology and security industry.
DEFCON 1 brings you job opportunities every week, and counts on members like you to submit job listings to share and post in this newsletter.
Help the network grow. Sign up a friend. They can join for free simply by visiting and selecting DEFCON 1.
When you learn about a job opportunity in the defense sector, such as a position that comes open with your company, you send me the title, organization, location, and a brief description; link; or contact information, and I’ll share. This is a cooperative network. That means everyone’s participation is required to provide job opportunities to share.
I never give out, rent, or sell my list, and neither does Topica.

Exploring Cyber Vulnerabilities within the Global Supply Chain
Should we be worried about the cyber vulnerabilities in our Maritime Domain?
The global supply chain depends on the timely transfer of information and materials, both of which are achieved through use of the cyber-sphere. Cyber security vulnerabilities within the maritime component of the global supply chain are a threat to maintaining maritime and energy security. Ports, ships, refineries, and support systems are vital components of a nation’s critical infrastructure, national security, and economy. Cyber-attacks on industrial control systems could kill or injure workers, damage equipment, expose the public and the environment to harmful pollutants, and lead to extensive economic damage. The loss of ship and cargo scheduling systems could substantially slow cargo operations in ports, leading to backups across the transportation system and expose manufacturers and consumers to crippling shortages. This slow-down in the ability to move vessels in and out of port quickly will result in the interruption to the flow of energy.
Cyber security is critical to all aspects of the maritime global supply chain; sophisticated attacks have redefined the security reality for the energy sector and commercial cargo carriers.
