      Tuesday was our first full day of research and work at Army Cyber. Instead of working with all of the command, I was assigned to a particular section. I was assigned to the G3. After picking some brains and having some conversations with the some of the people in the G3 I had an idea of  what direction I wanted to head but still didn’t really have any solid ideas. Cadet Ramirez and I then sat down with the chief of the department were assigned  to in order to find out what types of things we could work on and develop; things that would not only be beneficial to our learning but also to the development and advancement of the U.S. Army. After about a half hour discussion, I had an idea that I had some interest in, and also had some room for development. The topic that I decided to begin research on was INSIDER THREATS. The first thing that really came to mind with insider threats and the Army was with WikiLeaks and Bradley Manning. I took this idea and hit the ground running. For the remainder of the day I did some initial research on insider threats and where they have had affects on the government and in the civilian sector.
