While the long weekend offers a well-deserved break, Memorial Day serves as a solemn occasion to honor the brave men and women who made the ultimate sacrifice for our nation. Beyond the barbecues and parades, let's use this weekend as an opportunity to truly honor their memory. Each year, a national moment of silence takes place at 3:00p.m. on the Memorial Day holiday. Join us in a commitment to pause at this time to remember those who gave the ultimate sacrifice to allow the freedoms and privileges we enjoy today.

This Memorial Day, as we honor those who made the ultimate sacrifice, let's also consider how we can support our veterans who continue to protect us in new ways, especially in the field of cybersecurity. Veterans bring a unique set of skills to cybersecurity—discipline, strategic thinking, and a deep understanding of risk management. Default action and decisiveness also make them invaluable in incidents response. They have defended our freedoms on the battlefield, and now many of them are on the front lines of our digital defenses. Here’s how we can honor their service: 1. Hire Veterans: Actively seek out veterans for cybersecurity roles. Their military experience provides a strong foundation for tackling cyber threats. The Honor Foundation is a great source. 2. Provide Training: Offer specialized training programs to help veterans transit ion into cybersecurity careers. This not only benefits them but also strengthens our security infrastructure. 3. Mentorship Programs: Establish mentorship initiatives that connect veterans with experienced cybersecurity professionals. This helps them navigate the corporate world and develop new skills. 4. Support Networks: Create support networks within organizations to address the unique challenges veterans may face in the civilian workforce. 5. Raise Awareness: Advocate for the importance of cybersecurity and the valuable role veterans play in protecting our digital assets. Just as they protected our nation, veterans now help safeguard our businesses and personal data. By integrating their skills into cybersecurity, we not only honor their past service but also enhance our security measures. This Memorial Day, let’s recognize the ongoing contributions of our veterans. They continue to serve and protect, ensuring our digital world remains secure. By supporting them, we honor their legacy and build a safer future for all. #MemorialDay #VeteransInCybersecurity #HonorAndProtect #DigitalDefense #Gratitude #cyber #infosec #cybersecurity #cyberinsurance #ir #incidentresponse #cyberwar
Honoring and remembering those who made the ultimate sacrifice for our freedom. Happy Memorial Day!

In March, the US Army announced it would remove the Confederate memorial in Arlington National Cemetery, as a result of the congressionally mandated Naming Commission, requiring United States Department of Defense to reconsider assets commemorating the Confederacy. But the U.S. Department of Veterans Affairs, which was not subject to the mandate, maintains 34 other Confederate monuments in national cemeteries and soldier's lots reserved for U.S. veterans and their families. At Finn’s Point National Cemetery, in New Jersey, an 85-foot granite obelisk honoring the Confederate dead from the prison at nearby Fort Delaware dwarfs a nearby monument to Union soldiers. In Springfield National Cemetery, in Springfield, Missouri, a statue honoring Confederate soldiers reads, “Those who die for a right principle do not die in vain.” And in Chicago, not far from where thousands of Confederate soldiers died at Camp Douglas, their remains are marked by a 40-foot-tall statue of a Confederate soldier who peers out above the graves of prominent Black leaders buried in the adjoining cemetery, including the journalist and anti-lynching crusader Ida B. Wells, as well as Bishop Louis Henry Ford, who gave the eulogy at Emmett Till’s funeral. Four outward-pointing canons flank the base of the statue. “Confederate monuments are not consistent with VA’s commitment to serve all veterans with dignity and respect,” a VA spokesperson said in response to questions from The War Horse. “While VA maintains the Confederate gravesites and monuments in accordance with Federal law, we are considering all of our options.” Read our reporting from Randee Howard and Sonner Kehrt: https://lnkd.in/eTA33m5P #veteransaffairs #VA #cemetery #monuments #americanhistory #history #historygram #lostcausemythology #journalism #newsroom #thewarhorsenews
