7 Revealing Quotes from the New Head of U.S. Cyber Command
By Bruce Sussman
Read more about the author
Fri | May 4, 2018 | 9:21 AM PDT
Army Lt. Gen. Paul Nakasone is the new leader of U.S. Cyber Command and the top secret NSA, the National Security Agency.
After hearing the Secretary of Homeland Security warn digital foes about the use of cyber warfare at RSA, we wanted to know about the Lt. General's views as he takes control of America's cyber warfare capabilities.
Here are seven quotes he gave during his confirmation hearing that paint a picture of where he is coming from—and where the United States is going in cyber.
#1 - We need increasing deterrence in cyberspace
"I believe it is possible for actions in cyberspace to have a deterrent effect and contribute to the Nation's overall deterrence posture. Effective deterrence requires a whole-of-government approach, however, and cannot rely solely on efforts in cyberspace. The current level and tempo of cyber attacks is not tolerable. Our adversaries see opportunity for strategic advantage through continuous activity in the domain. We must act purposefully to frustrate their intentions, increase their costs, and decrease their likelihood of success."
#2 - Several red teams are defending Department of Defense systems against cyber enemies
"The Department has a robust, defense in depth approach that employs multiple capabilities at different levels in our networks and enables our defenders to generate tailored effects and mitigation strategies. Notably, the employment of DoD's nine certified cyber red teams in a 'persistent cyber opposing force (OPFOR)' role, as well as the growing use of innovative 'Bug Bounty' programs in the Department, leads to the continuous testing and strengthening of our information networks' defense."
#3 - How to define U.S. cyber weapons
"Our network is our weapons platform."
#4 - This is a 'defining moment' for the U.S. in cyberspace
"When I first started working cyber, operations were often just concepts, and when conducted, performed ad-hoc by technical specialists on loan from other organizations. Now, a mature and highly-capable Cyber force is built and in the fight, aggressively defending our network, conducting daily operations against adversaries, and strengthening the combat power and lethality of U.S. forces around the world. We are at a defining time for our Nation and our military. Near-peer competitors are posturing themselves, and threats to the United States' global advantage are growing—nowhere is this challenge more manifest than in cyberspace."
#5 - Big believer in agile
"I support the Agile approach to cyber capability development and support the Department transitioning from its traditional development process toward a more responsive and flexible approach. In today's cyber environment, the traditional acquisition model delivers a solution to a problem too late to be operationally impactful."
#6 - Who should defend privately owned critical infrastructure?
"This issue should not be viewed in a binary manner. We should look to help each other. For example, the Cybersecurity Act of 2015 facilitates the sharing of threat information in a bidirectional manner. While the responsibility for protecting privately-owned networks lies primarily with the system owner, the U.S. Government has the responsibility to defend national interests more broadly."
#7 - China and Russia are America's top cyber threats
"I consider China a strategic competitor, whose cyber capabilities pose a high threat to U.S. government and commercial networks. China is using its cyber capabilities to support intelligence collection against U.S. diplomatic, economic, and defense industrial base targets important to U.S. national security... China is a near-peer competitor in cyberspace."
Russian: "As the most technically advanced potential adversary in cyber space, Russia is a full-scope cyber actor, employing sophisticated cyber operations tactics, techniques and procedures against U.S. and foreign military, diplomatic, and commercial targets, as well as science and technology sectors. Russia will likely continue to integrate cyber warfare into its military structure to keep pace with U.S. cyber efforts, and conduct cyberspace operations in response to perceived domestic threats. Also, Russian cyber actors' have demonstrated the intent and capability to target industrial control systems found in the energy, transportation and industrial sectors."

I was diagnosed with PCOS when I was 19 years old. My husband and I was TTC for almost 9 months with no luck.
After continuing to try without any success, we began clomid treatments. The Clomid making me sick to my stomach.
After 4 rounds, we did not get pregnant. And then I started following the Getting Pregnant Plan book because the clomid and the other fertility drugs didn't worked on me.
We Finally Got a BFP After 7 Months of Trying.
When I was 24, I started noticing patches of dark skin on my face. Melasma, also known as "the mask of pregnancy" or "age spots" is a result of hormonal imbalances which are largely due to nutritional deficiencies.
I knew I had been suffering from adrenal exhaustion for a long time — ever since I was diagnosed with it. Adrenal exhaustion, or adrenal fatigue, is a condition where your adrenal glands are wiped out by stress, too much caffeine, inadequate rest, and malnutrition.
Pregnant Immediately in 3 Months Following The Book!
For the last couple of years I went through difficult times as I had problems in conceiving a baby. My husband and I felt frustrated and anxious because we had tried so many ways and yet the results weren't satisfactory. Thank God I found your book! I admit that I was skeptical when I came across your website, but my husband convinced me to give it a try. Moreover, considering the price is very affordable, I had nothing to lose and decided to buy the book. And you know what? The results amazed me!
I got pregnant in 3 months, it's really nothing short of a miracle.
I followed your programs in details and it really helped me to conceive a baby. My husband and I are so grateful and wanting to give you our best regards. You lead me to have a perfect family life. I love you!
My doctor prescribed me Metformin after 3 months of trying and I only took 500mg per day for a couple of months but could not build up to the 1500mg because it was making me so sick. So after 6 months of failed trying I decide to following the Getting Pregnant Plan I decided to give it one last shot using every method I could. And low and behold, the morning of the appointment I did a test and it was positive!
I was diagnosed with PCOS when I was 15 years old. Since then I was forced to come to terms with the fact that PCOS was a part of my life. I had to make the best of it.
Whenever I look at my old picture, I looked hideous. I was overweight and a mess, and have irregular periods to boot. It was then I decided to lose weight and start taking better care of myself. When I was 20 years old, I met my partner and we fell in love. The relationship moved quickly. He married me even though he knew that I had PCOS.
I really don't want to be a disappointment to his family for not being able to give him children. That's when I started following the Getting Pregnant Plan. Today, I'm a proud mother of a one year old beautiful baby daughter.
I can't be happier, Michelle.
My partner and I decided to start trying to expand our family 13 months ago. We have two lovely daughters from our previous relationships and we didn't think it would be too difficult to conceive again. We over the course of the years we have gone through every test imaginable, but have been told that there really isn't any reason that we can't get pregnant.
We did just that… and tried… and tried. All indications were that I was ovulating normally, he checked out with a great sperm analysis, but we just couldn't get pregnant.
I began seeing my naturopath weekly for acupuncture, changing my diet, but I knew there was something missing. One of my friend suggests me to read The Getting Pregnant Plan, after about five months of following the e-book, I got it: a positive pregnancy test! Thanks Michelle.

She is a quintessential brunette, known for her glossy brown mane.
But Sandra Bullock is lightening up for her role in new film Our Brand Is Crisis.
The 50-year-old debuted her blonde locks on the set of the George Clooney-produced film in New Orleans, Louisiana on Monday.
The Oscar winner looked gorgeous with the lighter 'do, which softened her strong features.
At one point, Sandra wore a white T-shirt, grey cardigan and jeans as she made her way to set.
She added a youthful touch with white trainers and tied her hair in a half updo.
The actress is playing retired political consultant Jane Bodine in the dramedy, directed by David Gordon Green.
The film is based on the 2005 documentary of the same name, and looks at American political campaign strategies in Bolivia.
Sandra is re-teaming with her Gravity co-star Clooney, who will produce the film.
This isn't the first time Sandra has sported blonde hair for a role.
She highlighted her hair in 2009's The Blind Side, for which she won an Academy Award.
That same year, she also showed off blonde tresses when she starred opposite Bradley Cooper in All About Steve.
Sorry, I couldn't copy it all on my iPad.
Thanks pan....good job done !

The different interpretations of the 3 at the back formation by Conte, Wenger, Pochettino & Guardiola
Mark Tsoir
Antonio Conte came to the Premier League in rather quiet fashion. The arrivals of Jose Mourinho and Pep Guardiola were the talk of the town. But now, a season on, Conte's vision and use of the 3-at-the-back formations have revolutionised the Premier League.
Before the Italian, no more than two or three systems were implemented throughout the league. Most clubs used the 4-2-3-1. Chelsea themselves were famed for doing so, fielding a trio of Mata, Oscar, and Hazard and allowing the players to freely interchange roles in the attack. The 4-4-2 has always been one of football's staples. Claudio Ranieri miraculously won the Premier League with Leicester with that set up in the season prior to Conte's arrival. The 4-3-3 was a tad less common. Few clubs used it as a blueprint for their play, but it was always an option for in-game tweaks or used as an alternate when squads became overwhelmed with injuries or suspensions. Liverpool took to it, however, with Jurgen Klopp's arrival. And even before the German, a variation on the tactic was used with Raheem Sterling, Luis Suarez, and Daniel Sturridge as the front three.
But then came Antonio. He did not immediately release his famed 3-4-3 formation onto England. His original hopes were to gather the necessary players before changing to his preferred 352 system. His Chelsea sides were first fielded in a 4231 formation. It was not ideal and left much to be desired as the victories were secured with last-gasp winners, if at all. After a severe 3-0 defeat at the Emirates to cap off a disappointing September, Conte decided to switch things up. In the first game of October, Chelsea started with a 343 formation. The players immediately took to it, beating Hull City in the first hurdle of a 13 game winning run. Other managers took note. Now, past the midway mark of the 17/18 season, it is harder to find a team in the Premier League that does not use a 3-back formation in lieu of one opting for the more classic four man line.
Each manager went about the transition with his own vision, but there are several fundamentals to the 3-back. It is deployed with three CBs, two wingbacks that are usually tasked with hogging the sidelines to provide width, and the front five are free for the manager's use. The team could play with a two-man pivot in the midfield, two wide attacking midfielders given the freedom to roam and move into the inner channels, and the central striker – as Chelsea did last year. Or, the manager could start with a three-man midfield, and a striking pair up top. In this 352, one of the attackers is usually used as a centre-forward or the pivoting attacking midfielder. Lastly, a four-man midfield diamond could also be deployed, but that is far less common in the Premier League. Most crucial to each system is the set-up of the three CBs in the last line and the role of each of those individuals. From the base, stems the entire system.
Antonio Conte's arch.
Conte was the first to introduce the tactic to the British Isles and uses his defence in the most orthodox fashion. With Gary Cahill, Cesar Azpilicueta, and David Luiz at his exposal last term, and the additions of Andreas Christensen and Antonio Rudiger in 17/18, Conte favours using a central ball-playing defender and using the two wide CBs as his shielding cover.
Luiz was Chelsea's architect in 16/17. Sitting comfortably at the centre of the three-man defence, Luiz would drop slightly deeper where he would have the space to play long diagonal passes to the wide wingbacks. The two wide CBs – Cahill and Azpilicueta – would step up slightly beyond the midfield line. They would patrol the area ahead of Luiz and initiate moves from the deeper wide areas. Purposefully placed in the half-spaces on either flank, Cahill and Azpilicueta's positioning would jointly provide cover for Luiz and both of the wingbacks. Marcos Alonso and Victor Moses would be free to keep their width by the penalty box, resulting in a grander scale arch in the opponent's half. Luiz was the pivoting tip, the wide CBs were the cornerstones, and the wingbacks' width determined how wide the pillars would stand.
This enabled Conte to grant his attacking midfielders almost full freedom as all areas but the centre were accounted for.

Mauricio Pochettino's penchant for possession.
Conte's 343 was the template for other managers, not the benchmark. It left a lot to be desired, especially in central areas. Pochettino has always favoured a more possession-based game in contrast to Conte's Italian love for the Catenaccio and thus used his three-man last line of defense rather differently. The wingbacks served the same purpose – provide the width for the whole team. But in lieu of having the two wide CBs step up, Pochettino used Eric Dier as a CDM/CB hybrid. The Englishman is a natural in both positions and thus was instructed to play a foot in both fields during the game. When Spurs did not have possession, Dier was a defender and took up his central position among the CBs. In possession, Dier pushed slightly forward into midfield. Acting as the deepest lying midfielder, he provided cover for the wide CBs and was always a passing option for his midfielders.
Pochettino went for the compromise. He wanted to free up his attacking midfielders by only using his wingbacks on the flanks, but didn't want to leave his midfield with a sole two-man pivot. Thus, he used Dier as sort of a transition man. The tactic and formation depended on the in-game situation, but Pochettino could field three CBs without giving up a three-man midfield that so many possession based systems use.
This year, Spurs have been dealing with injuries all season round and Pochettino had continuously been forced to adapt his tactics to the players he has available, and the newboy Davinson Sanchez.
Arsene Wenger's use of multiple fullbacks.
Wenger ushered in his own revolution in England roughly two decades ago. And he is certainly sailing Conte's winds this time around. But there is one screamingly obvious difference in the two man's tactics – the implementation of a fullback into the three CBs and his individual role. At Chelsea, Conte converted Azpilicueta into a CB. Originally a defensive minded fullback, the Spaniard took to his new role without a simple complication. Wenger chose to do the same with Nacho Monreal, but still uses the Spaniard as one of his main attacking threats.
Having played as an LB for the majority of his career, Monreal now starts each Arsenal game at LCB. The five defenders function similarly to Conte's design, with Laurent Koscielny and Shkodran Mustafi making up the rest of the three CBs. Monreal always keeps his positioning no wider than the edge of the penalty box. He steps up into midfield slightly, and when space ahead of him opens up, make deep runs into the box. Essentially, he functions as a fullback, but more of an 'inside fullback'. He always looks to play a one-two with any of the Arsenal midfielders and to cutback passes from the byline. Monreal's even notched up a goal or two with his runs and attacking intent. While the Spaniard surges forward, Koscielny and Mustafi revert to the CB pairing of the more orthodox four-back formations.
Pep Guardiola's combination of all three

It's no secret that Guardiola is a tactical genius. His teams are drilled with rigid instruction yet display some of the most fluid football, all in due to the Spaniard's dedication to play football in his image. It took him a season to adjust to England, and now he is conquering the Premier League and rewriting every record under his own name. At the beginning of the season, before Manchester City's new left-back Benjamin Mendy got injured, Guardiola used his own variation of the three-back formation.
He took a little something from every manager. The three starting CBs were Nicolas Otamendi, John Stones, and Kyle Walker – who was asked to play as an RCB despite playing as an RB for all prior years in his career, just as Monreal. Otamendi was the anchoring CB. The Argentine was instructed to remain as the last man of the defence, staying furthest back. He was to provide cover for Walker, who Pep demanded to play as an 'inside fullback,' exactly as Wegner used Monreal. Just on the other side, of course. Lastly, Stones was given a freer role. Guardiola bought the Englishman for a hefty sum two summers ago, primarily for the bravado with which he plays and his on-the-ball abilities. In this tactic, Stones was granted the freedom to venture slightly forward, almost playing as a second defensive midfielder alongside Fernandinho. Stones passing range and dribbling prowess help the young Englishman to spread the ball about and hold his own under pressure.
Up until Mendy's injury, the tactic was proving overwhelming for any opposing side. Guardiola is yet to revert since the French defender got sidelined, and is unlikely to revisit until his return. Pep used the three-back so he could start the striking duo of Sergio Kun Aguero and Gabriel Jesus together. Saying himself that the tactic would not work without Mendy, Guardiola has hence fielded the City men in his preferred 433.

Medical Tourism refers to the influx of people from developed to developing countries for obtaining first-class yet cheaper medical treatments / healthcare services.
According to several recent surveys, India especially has turned into the richest and hottest destination for medical tourism in catering treatments such as dental, medical procedures ranging from simple treatments to invasive surgeries, alternative therapies such as ayurveda etc. For the fact that, medical treatments are of great variation across the globe, India has raised its standards in supporting and offering the best healthcare service providers in terms of cost-effectiveness, quality and trained man-power. With the rising economies of countries such as Thailand, Malaysia and Singapore which stand in competition with India in medical tourism, India holds some great advantages, such as, the use of English language throughout the country, availability of world class hospitals, highly qualified medical practitioners etc.
Medical tourism in India has seen a slow but sustained growth from literally a cottage industry stage to a flourishing corporate world that it is now. Though the industry has grown significantly, there is space for improvement in the coming years. The cost of medical / healthcare services in India is as low as 20% compared to that in developed countries such as United States, United Kingdom and many other European Countries. In India, the Ministry of Health has set up an accreditation board for hospitals & healthcare service providers called the "National Accreditation Board for Hospitals & Healthcare Providers" (NABH), which is positioned as the Quality Council of India. It functions to provide accrediting guidelines to the many hospitals & healthcare service providers. Many hospitals and healthcare set-ups also have accreditation's from the Joint Commission International (JCI) which reinforces the high quality of healthcare offered by these organizations.
Medical Tourism has become a well-known industry and has a vital impact on the economy of India. Many travelers, health insurance companies, hospitals, private clinics are gorging their hopes on India and looking forward for the best quality health services at a fraction of the cost.
Each student enrolled in the Professional Diploma in Medical Tourism & Healthcare Marketing Course (PDMTHM) is also assigned a mentor throughout the course who will be a senior professional from the industry. Towards the end of the program you will be provided placement assistance if required and career development support via the "Student Success Team".

Irish gigs round-up
THE BREEDERS: Vicar Street, Dublin, Monday
The last time The Breeders went on tour they couldn't resist doing the now-obligatory 20th anniversary album shows that any self-respecting 1990s alt-rock band goes for.
The band took their breakthrough LP Last Splash on the road in the US and Europe, including a show at Vicar Street – but this time it's not a full-on nostalgia-fest.
Like frontwoman Kim Deal's former band Pixies, The Breeders have had to record new songs to excuse the comeback.
Wait in the Car is the first in a series of 7-inches, and it's a great two-minute skuzzy garage track that'll ease fans' nerves — but most people here will be showing up for Cannonball, Divine Hammer and the rest.
THE DARKNESS: Dolan's, Limerick, tonight; The Academy, Dublin, tomorrow; The Limelight, Belfast, Sunday
I still get grim flashbacks to trudging past the main stage at Oxegen 2003 seeing the Darkness in place of David Bowie who'd cancelled – one of the true horror stories in Irish festival history. The scene is even more tragic in Bowie's absence.
But it was hardly the fault of the Darkness, who were huge at the time — good-natured cock-rock goofballs who were playing the guitar god thing like a cheesy pantomime.
Well over a decade later, they've already had their drugs mess-ups, an extended hiatus and three records since their return in 2012.
New one Pinewood Smile is 36 minutes long so it gets to the point immediately — that point being that the last 30-odd years of music never happened and classic rock riffs and squealing geetar solos will save the day.
JOOLS HOLLAND and HIS RHYTHM & BLUES ORCHESTRA: Waterfront Hall Auditorium, Belfast, tonight; 3Arena, Dublin, tomorrow
Jools Holland's jaunty piano man schtick isn't everyone's cup of tea – Mark E Smith of The Fall once said he'd only agree to play if he didn't have to duet with the former Squeeze man: "No boogie-woogie piano, Mister Holland."
But still, the English veteran's pop cultural clout is set in stone, after 20 years of his Later… show, the most consistent live format TV show still running, that's hosted countless legends and legends in the making.
So he's mostly known for jamming on the keys with everyone from Bowie to Jay-Z and Joe Strummer, but his own music will be on show in these shows, with a few choice covers.
Latest album piano is full of good-time piano boppers with titles like Bumble Boogie, Bang and Pop and Red Ragtime, and he'll add blues and ska to the mix here.
THE JESUS AND MARY CHAIN: Vicar Street, Dublin, Tuesday.
Glasgow brothers Jim and William Reid were like the Gallagher brothers of 80s indie — creating some of the hyped music of the decade while still at each other's throats.
But while Liam and Noel plundered the back catalogues of the Beatles and the Kinks, The Jesus and Mary Chain were in thrall to 50s doo-wop, Spector's wall of sound and psychedelic pop.
It's only six months since The Jesus and Mary Chain last played Vicar Street, so it seems the band are a proper going concern after a few years in comeback nostalgia limbo. Their first album since 1998, Damage and Joy, is a nod to the band's classic debut Psychocandy — which will please just about everyone in Vicar Street.
J.COLE: 3Arena, Dublin, Wednesday
While everyone has been losing the plot over the imminent arrival of Kendrick Lamar to Dublin next year, another 3Arena gig by another prominent socially-conscious rapper has been sidelined slightly.
North Carolina MC Cole is touring his latest album 4 Your Eyez Only, playing 'in the round' in the middle of the floor, looking like he's ready for 12 rounds in a boxing ring, wearing an orange inmate jumpsuit.
Don't expect him to race through the hit without taking some time outs to 'discuss' the absolute state of his country.
