Following the scandal WikiLeaks Julian Assange, many military agencies, under the threat of court martial, banned the use of flash drives, CD and DVD for data storage.
Called the Cyber Control Order, members of the armed forces are to cease and desist the use of removable storage devices connected to the secret data from the Department of Defense SIPRNet network. This is after thousands of classified documents were published.
According to reports, a soldier discharged hundreds of thousands of classified documents on a CD marked as Lady Gaga. I guess I could not see your poker face, either. Then he turned the CD on the site Wikileaks.
Although it was established under the name of security, this new order will be more difficult for members of the armed forces to do their job, and removable media that these were the most common form of information that is transferred from one computer to another. Maybe they just should prohibit Lady Gaga military means.
Any portable devices captured soldiers of the unit may be a court martial under Article 92, failure to obey an order or regulation. I think the army is taking the wrong approach to keep the data sorted out.
