Got ICT-related Masters qual?

You could be a NATO Cyber Defence analyst

Closes May 3rd

I see that the post Subb has notified above requires that:

The incumbent must:
• possess a university degree, Master’s Degree preferred, in Information and Communications Technology (ICT);
• possess at least 6 years’ practical experience in ICT engineering or ICT system/network administration;
• possess at least 2 years’ recent professional experience (i.e. within the last 4 years) in computer security incident response, specifically in handling and investigating of computer security incidents via Computer Forensics (e.g. Encase);
• possess at least 2 years’ experience dealing with Information Security (INFOSEC) issues (ideally in environments with high security requirements similar to NATO, such as international organisations, government or military systems);
• have extensive and up to date knowledge and understanding of computer Forensics technologies, techniques and procedures;
• have expertise and practical experience in development of ICT security concepts, requirements and solutions (ideally in environments with high security requirements similar to NATO, such as international organizations, government or military systems)
• have up to date understanding of computer networking (TCP/IP) and operating systems, including their security aspects;
• be fluent in one of the two official languages of the Organization and have a basic working knowledge of the other….

…all at “A3 level”.

Things have indeed progressed since I first typed QAZstopWSXstop in anger.

The Masters got me, I will try with a dinstinction in ACW at EPC (A), I could have a punt at MSyI now that one of us is on the validation board?

Like HS and TMA I am fairly fluent in Modern English and Estuary. (I have several Chas and Dave LPs)

I have a basic understanding of Welsh and some other NATO languages

Noch zwei bitte

Sub given your recent promotion to Senior Tractor Salesperson (ROW & Birmingham ) surely you should also include the Somerset dialect in your CV for the ICT position above ?

As Hayto used to say, when radio reception was not that good on the Big Blue and he was at the back of the caravan attempting to get further forward:

"Whirr be gwain to? Tiz getting dimpsey, zo cummin yer an wet thee's whistle. Yer, which o they jars is owern? Thicky ones yourn, inner? Dang I if there ain't a gurt big wapse innun"

"Mines a Badger inner"

Attended, for the first time in 2 years the ICAREC Clinic at the obvious last night.

Great to see that the`management` has changed to a more dynamic individual who I (and others attending) see it as a very positive move and hopefully some changes to a 15 year old system (good in its day - but showing signs of age and not addressing contemporary or future issues for the benefit of members) will take place in the coming months.

Still no online presence though

I hear there is an un-endorsed on-line presence, but the site manager applies some quite rigorous entry criteria. Somehow he seems to have retained access into what used to be called, IIRC, the Army Index at M+RO York. Sanctioned, or not, this can only be a force for good IMHO.

The new chair sounds like a welcome breath of fresh air. A Previous serving Director and some COs had been able to attend in the past. IMHO ANY Intelligence Corps officer or soldier in a management position as first or second reporting officer needs to be aware of the features, advantages and benefits that ICAREC offer BOTH for resettlement AND retention.

It would be nice to see some of the offers made by members of the ICAREC Network to talk to, A3, A1, SM+D, Warrant Officer's and Director's conventions being take up for once. I know of at least three members of the Network who have consistently advised wavering JNCOs to stay IN rather than PVR.

It would also be a welcome change to see some Intelligence Corps Unit Resettlement Officers or CMROs turning up at ICAREC clinics once in a while. They are also looking to employ people, by keeping them in the Corps
Exploitation of all available sources and agencies used to be a principle we were once taught. Another interesting fact: IIRC it was E2 Sergeant Major Mick who coined the phrase " life is a research operation"*



*See also: " recruit your own side first". If not the roll-up smoking, mandolin-playing, former Ops Officer, with an OU degree in Pure Maths, will correct me.
