When the CPU design is compromised, software security is meaningless. Intel and
AMD CPUs are all proprietary, the designs are secret and the fabrication process
is so complicated, there could be a spy that could modify the CPU to insert bac
kdoors.

So basically govt fabricates it's hardware in a controlled environment. I heard
that NSA has it's IC fabrication utility. Still, generally speaking, the highest
level of security that you can have is the one that your hardware manufacturer
allows you to have.

You can protect yourself from some smalltime crackers, but when the NSA & Co. ge
ts involved, all your software are belong to us.
Because they, I assume, have control over the hardware fabrication process.

Nuke the partition and do a fresh windows install is the easy way.
Boot in safe mode and attempt malware removal or manual auditing of all startup
programs and services, deleting the associated files and pruning the registry is
the hard way.

I don't have a degree. I don't code for my job either. I went to a .NET coding b

Euro here, it's honestly a lot about connections. Be charismatic and apply every
where. Where I live a master i n IT and management is mostly just theory. Employ
ers look for people with theory and how to bring the theory in practice.

I don't think it works that way. If your SF86 requires TS then they send a few P
Is to dig through your past. I have no idea what those guys do.
Your internet history is crazy convoluted and every day that passes creates more
challenges in searching though it. The only real way to find your internet hist
ory long term is typically taking your personal computer to a forensics lab.
Only exception is if you are on a govt watch list, then every thing you do is tr
acked. Dont go looking for terrorist propaganda and you'll be fine

OP, going to college for either this or digital forensics. If you know anything
about that I'd love some more info. If not:
- what's your workplace like? How does an average day play out?
- how was it getting the certs?
- is the massive demand a real thing?

Well I typically spend it processing different TCNOs (Time Compliance Network Or
ders) from the DOD regarding our networks security posture. Literally 99% of the
se are solved with patches so I spend a lot of time either creating trouble tick

ets for our network guys in a program we use or I remote in and patch them mysel
f. If I'm not working on that, I check our scanners letting me know if people ar
e plugging in phones or flash drives or routers or shit like that (doing such is
not allowed. Plugging a phone into a govt computer makes that phone USG propert
y). I then confiscate said devices. I do a lot of this from home, but some is do
ne at work around 2-3 days a week.
>certs

For people with a degree and certs, yes. No degree is a challenge even in this j
