Happy Wednesday! Help us celebrate Tanner J., our technical account manager for our public sector partners here at TestifySec. Tanner's love and deep passion for cybersecurity have been evident since his college days when a mentor introduced him to both offensive and defensive security within information technology. Graduating from Carnegie Mellon University in 2023 with a Master of Information Systems and Policy Management, Tanner quickly transitioned into his role as a Technical Account Manager at the tech startup, TestifySec. Educationally, Tanner also got his undergrad at Weber State University. At TestifySec, Tanner plays a pivotal role in supporting the US Navy's efforts to modernize combat systems through their software factory, The Forge. “Tanner’s ability to understand customer perspectives and business needs, combined with his technical capability, makes him a uniquely valuable team member at TestifySec. He has been able to quickly ramp up on Terraform and K8s, which will enable product deployment. He also played a key role in the creation of documentation for our AWS Marketplace offering.” - Robbi Kenney, Director of Channel Delivery. Tanner has had the opportunity to work on various projects, including TestifySec's #opensource efforts around #intoto, #Witness, and #Archivista, which are part of the Cloud Native Computing Foundation (CNCF) within the The Linux Foundation. He also supports the platform development team, sales engineering, marketing, and enjoys collaborating with frontline developers and teams to align efforts with customer needs. “Tanner brings a refreshing personality and go-getter attitude to everything he does,” Matt “Mohawk” Denny, Marketing & Outreach Director at TestifySec. “His ability to shift from engineering to security to business development is unparalleled. He is an asset to the team and is a fun person to work with.” Outside of work, Tanner cherishes time with his wife and one-year-old son, exploring the outdoors and dabbling in woodworking.

The DoD has unveiled the Fulcrum Advanced Strategic Plan, a comprehensive roadmap designed to drive growth, innovation, and operational excellence. What are your thoughts about the new DOD Strategy? We found a highlight about changes in Software Supply Chain Security Section - 1.3.6 Building Supply Chain Security Ensuring the supply chain is secured provides flexibility to accelerate the acquisition of national security systems while reducing the risk of injecting unnecessary system vulnerabilities. The document also highlights the Key Lines of Effort: 1️⃣ Provide Joint Warfighting IT Capabilities: Enhance strategic dominance with advanced, secure, and interoperable IT systems. This includes leveraging AI and machine learning to outpace adversaries and ensure superior operational capabilities. 2️⃣ Modernize Information Networks and Compute: Transition to a data-centric Zero Trust security model, optimizing the DoDIN foundation for performance and resilience. This effort aims to integrate scalable, secure IT infrastructure that adapts to modern threats. 3️⃣ Optimize IT Governance: Streamline IT governance processes to enhance efficiency and mission alignment. This involves overhauling governance tools, improving data quality, consolidating legacy systems, and accelerating IT acquisition with DevSecOps practices. 4️⃣ Cultivate a Premier Digital Workforce: Build and maintain a highly skilled digital workforce ready to deploy emerging technologies. Focus areas include continuous learning, competitive compensation, and fostering collaborative partnerships with industry and academia. #cybersecurity #dod #compliance #fulcrum
