blog.wired.com — The Air Force wants a suite of hacker tools, to give it "access" to--and "full control" of--any kind of computer there is. And once the info warriors are in, the Air Force wants them to keep tabs on their "adversaries' information infrastructure completely undetected." The government is growing increasingly interested in waging war online.

What is so sad is that the air force has/is already doing this. We have been doing this stuff for the past 3-4 years, its only now getting put under one roof (buzzwords people, thats how the military is run). And if you think some little unix based OS will beat this somehow you are sadly mistaken. That is actually what most of the custom OS's the air force owns are based around (usually a heavily modified solaris variant). I cant say what I do but my career field is a 3c0x1 and if you copy/paste that into google and research you will see what we are trained for. Not trying to thumb my nose at anyone, just pointing out that this is very old news really, and in fact we started converging into the cyber command about a year ago. Most certainly out of date news. buried for lateness and lack of real information.
