535: Swivel-Chair Speed
General Dempsey's Federated App Store, Chink in the Armor
General Martin Dempsey, Chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff, is mocked for a speech at Brookings regarding a "federated app store" for the military. Dempsey used the phrase "chink in our nation's armor" while discussing cyber threats from China, which is noted for its potential double meaning. He also announced a $23 billion investment in cybersecurity to move the military from "swivel chair speed" to "network speed."
